The United States Department of Agricultural (USDA) has awarded the grant to a research team led by Nicole Price. The team also includes Bigelow labs and Colby College. The team plans on using the funds to research algae-based feed supplements that aim to balance quality milk production with environmental sustainability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis grant allows us to bring together a multidisciplinary team of world-class experts in their fields,\u201d Price said. \u201cThis is a team that has already been working well together for several years on finding pointed solutions for sustainability within the cattle industry. Now, we can expand our scope and work together on a whole-systems approach to sustainably enhance U.S. milk production.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/grantwatch.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GrantWatch<\/a> has similar grants available of up to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.grantwatch.com\/grant\/199109\/grants-to-usa-dairy-processors-farmers-and-producer-associations-in-multiple-states-to-advance-dairy-product-safety.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> $40,000<\/a> for U.S. dairy processors, farmers, and producer associations in multiple states to advance dairy product safety.

These burps have a serious environmental impact. These feed additives can actually be produced with a lower carbon footprint than land-crops. Further studies have shown that microscopic algae can offer similar results and could be scalable for small and large farms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This team of economists and social scientists is trying to turn these scientific findings into an economic opportunity. They will examine how to integrate this product into the supply chain, while making the process profitable and popular. This will only have significant impact if the product becomes adopted in the mainstream and of course it has to be economically reasonable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This research team lead by Price also includes a collaboration of researchers from several institutions including: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Syracuse University<\/li><li>University of New Hampshire<\/li><li>University of Vermont <\/li><li>Clarkson University <\/li><li>Willaim H.
