As the USDA’s only farmer-led research initiative, SARE has supported over 9,000 grassroots projects since 1988, providing essential, region-specific tools to improve sustainability, profitability, and resilience in American agriculture.https://sustainableagriculture.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/media-release-banner.png1200400
