The Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) is providing notice of its funding strategy for the Market Access Program and Foreign Market Development Cooperator Program. The notice states that FAS may not fund requests in full through the initial allocation of funding, but may provide additional funding to approved program participants through subsequent funding tranches throughout the fiscal year. • The funding will be provided at FAS's sole discretion and will not exceed the total amount requested by the applicant in their initial program application. • The notice also provides contact information for inquiries, including Curt Alt, Senior Director, Program Operations Division, and Eric Bozoian, Grants Management Specialist. • The notice is not soliciting applications at this time, but rather providing information on the funding strategy for the programs.
