Production Research Database
Since 2001, the National Peanut Board (NPB) has allocated more than $48.5 million toward state and industry production research.
NPB has leveraged over $1.9 million of NPB and other industry partners' funds to receive over $4.2 million in matching dollars from the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA). Each year, we allocate funding for state and regionally identified research programs to maximize value for the dollar, eliminate duplication, encourage collaboration and eliminate gaps.
A dime here, a dollar there — when it comes to research, it all adds up to keeping peanut production affordable for farmersand competitive on the world market.
