SUMMARY:AFRI - FAS Mitigating Antimicrobial Resistance Across the Food Chain (A1366)
DESCRIPTION:Program Area Priority: Innovative solutions to the complex problem of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in food and agriculture are most effectively addressed by inter-disciplinary teams of experts using a systems approach. This systems-based integrated program will empower inter-disciplinary teams to develop\, refine\, and disseminate science-based knowledge about food and agricultural management and production practices that can mitigate or reduce the risk of antimicrobial resistance along the food chain. Approaches can span AMR knowledge gaps to include but not limited to stewardship and behavioral changes in food and agriculture. The goal is to ensure safe\, nutritious and abundant food supply while conserving and protecting responsible use of antimicrobials across the food and agriculture domain. \nApplications must address at least one of the following: \na. Describe\, quantify\, assess\, and/or mitigate the risk to human health from the presence of AMR pathogens or genes persisting at various critical control points along the food chain from production through processing to retail\, and human consumption; \nb. Investigate and assess important factors\, such as fitness and virulence associated with foodborne AMR pathogens that contribute to AMR development and persistence leading to foodborne illness; \nc. Identify risk associated with antimicrobial use and pathways in livestock and crop systems\, AMR development\, and public health; \nd. Assess AMR in food and agriculture: challenges for small-scale or historically underserved producers; and/or e. Determine improved best management practices and approaches in antibiotic stewardship and trusted resources for communicating and dispensing antibiotic stewardship information and guidance.

SUMMARY:AFRI - FAS Pests and Beneficial Species in Agricultural Production Systems (A1112)
DESCRIPTION:Program Area Priority: The goal of the Pests and Beneficial Species in Agricultural Production Systems program is to advance knowledge of invasive or established plant pests and associated beneficial species leading to innovative and biologically-based strategies to manage pests. Appropriate plant-based agricultural production systems for study include food and fiber crops\, ornamental plants (including turf)\, and managed grasslands\, rangelands and planted forests. Conventional\, organic\, and protected systems (including hydroponics\, aquaponics\, aeroponics\, vertical farming\, and other controlled environment agricultural systems) are appropriate for study. Pests may include invertebrates\, plant pathogens and/or their vectors\, nematodes or weeds. Beneficial species in this program will be restricted to biological control agents and microbes that play a role in pest management. Molecular\, organismal\, population\, and/or community approaches are appropriate to this program. Both foundational and translational projects are welcome. \nApplications must address one or more of the following (order does not indicate importance): \n\nBiotic and abiotic factors\, affecting the abundance or spread of agriculturally-important plant pests\, disease vectors\, or beneficial species relevant to pest management; factors may include (but are not limited to) other plant pests or beneficial species\, climate change\, plant compounds\, pesticides\, or toxins;\nBehavioral attributes of pests and beneficial species\, including intra- or interspecies interactions and/or communication systems relevant to pest management;\nFactors that contribute to invasiveness\, including (but not limited to) studies using population genetics/genomic approaches or models to predict\, prevent or manage outbreaks\, or to pinpoint geographic distribution or origin;\nMovement or dispersal dynamics of pests or beneficial organisms\, including pests that vector plant diseases; this could include epidemiological factors that influence disease spread\, the influence of agronomic practices on weed populations\, and research on aspects of weed biology that impact reproductive biology\, seed bank dynamics\, and other population-level aspects;\nMechanisms of pest resistance to pesticides or toxins in genetically-modified plants (e.g.\, fungicides\, herbicides\, insecticides\, or Bt toxin) and development of strategies to mitigate resistance and/or crop failure;\nUse of indigenous traditional ecological knowledge in pest and disease control.
