Program objective

The MPPRI Program is part of the broader USDA investment to transform the food supply chain. Given that the meat and poultry processing sector is particularly vulnerable to disruption, increasing capacity and promoting competition in this sector is a high priority for USDA. Therefore, the USDA MPPRI awards will provide grants as equity-free (nondiluted) funding to promote private sector companies with SBIR/STTR Phase I/II success for the integration of technology that has been developed, with minimal additional research required, to impact technology advancements and adoption to benefit the supply chain resilience of small and midsize meat and poultry processors.
