Description: The New Technologies for Ag Extension (NTAE) Competitive Grants Program RFA for fiscal year (FY) 2019 provides funding for a cooperative agreement that contributes to &#8220;Enhancing Electronic Extension (E3),&#8221; a national web-based information and education delivery system. E3 engages land-grant institutions and the Cooperative Extension Service to provide objective, scientific information to the public that answer questions and guide decisions. By creating web-based access to high-quality, non-duplicative, research-based information, E3 can help better serve the needs of the public seeking real-time information. In FY 2019, NIFA plans to support E3 strategic direction in providing leadership for innovation and technology that advances education through the promotion of CES growth and competencies.
