UK Biotechnology & Biological Sciences Research Council — Agri-Systems Research

BBSRC announces a call for collaborative proposals to address research challenges relating to the sustainable intensification of agricultural systems in developing countries. The aim of this call is to enhance livelihoods through research to improve the productivity, sustainability, resilience and health of crops and/or farmed animals (including aquaculture). Proposals must be led by a Principal Investigator (PI) in the UK, but are expected to be co-designed and delivered with “in-country” researchers. Funds of £1.5 million can be requested for up to two years. The call will close on 19 September 2018. Click here
