Agricultural Trade Promotion (ATP) Explained

What is ATP CostShare and How do I Apply?

During this webinar, SUSTA will explain the difference between MAP CostShare and ATP CostShare and how to apply or how to amend your 2019 contract to access the new funds.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) awarded $200 million to 57 organizations through the Agricultural Trade Promotion Program (ATP) to help U.S. farmers and ranchers identify and access new export markets. SUSTA was awarded ATP funding, which will flow over a three year period so that we can assist our Southern-region exporters. SUSTA is offering an ATP CostShare program through ATP. While it will closely mirror our current Market Access Program (MAP) CostShare, there are some key differences between the two.

Questions we will answer:

What is ATP?
Should I apply for MAP CostShare or ATP CostShare?
Can I apply for both?
How do I apply for ATP CostShare and/or how do I amend my MAP CostShare application to request ATP CostShare funds?

After you register, SUSTA staff will send you the link and phone number for the webinar.
