The US-Ireland R&D Partnership increases collaborative research and development and maximizes scientific and financial resources, while focusing on mutual strategic research priorities. In 2015, USDA, Republic of Ireland Department of Agriculture, Food, and the Marine (DAFM) and the Northern Ireland Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (DAERA) launched a five-year pilot program adding agriculture as a Partnership priority area. During the pilot the partners capitalized investments in research intended to help solve global agriculture-related issues. Following the successful conclusion of the pilot, USDA, DAFM and DAERA are pleased to include agriculture as a priority area under the partnership.
Join us on June 22 at 10 a.m. EDT | 3 p.m. BST/IST as we discuss the partnership and what is in store for the next phase. If you are a researcher, Land-grant University stakeholder, or simply interested in international agriculture, be sure to join. Go online to learn more or to register in advance for this webinar.
