| Foundational Program |
The AFRI Foundational Program supports grants in the six AFRI priority areas to continue building a foundation of knowledge critical for solving current and future societal challenges. The six priority areas are: |
| Food Waste Reduction |
This guide from the USDA Rural Development agency highlights the various ways the agency provides funding and support for food loss and waste reduction, reuse and composting. |
| Large-Scale Food Waste Composting |
This project was to fund the development of a large-scale food waste composting facility on the University’s property, in order to compost food waste from University dining halls. This project was precipitated by the commitment made by the University in the 2010 Illinois Climate Action Plan (iCAP): “The University will commit to… a large‐scale food composting project by 2012.” |
