Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA APHIS 10025 VSSP0000 25 0015
The HPAI Poultry Innovation Grand Challenge is a USDA funding opportunity aimed at tackling highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), strengthening the U.S. poultry industry, and helping reduce egg prices. Backed by up to $100 million in total funding, this initiative is a key part of the USDA’s broader $1 billion strategy announced in February 2025.
Funding will be awarded on a competitive basis to projects that align with the priorities outlined in the full announcement. Awards will be made through cooperative agreements, which may involve active participation from USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). Proposals will be reviewed and scored for quality and relevance, and not all applicants are guaranteed funding. Awards may also be offered at a lower amount than requested, at which point applicants would need to revise their proposals accordingly.
Eligible applicants include a broad range of organizations such as U.S. and some foreign for-profits, universities, nonprofits, government agencies, poultry producer organizations, veterinary groups, state agricultural and emergency response departments, and small businesses. Special considerations may apply to foreign applicants or foreign-affiliated entities.Apply for USDA APHIS 10025 VSSP0000 25 0015
