The Department of Agriculture will submit an information collection requirement to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review as part of the Paperwork Reduction Act. This request is related to the Micro-Grants for Food Security Program (MGFSP), which aims to boost locally grown food quantities and quality in food-insecure communities. The program, funded by the Farm Bill, collects essential information from grant applicants, primarily from agricultural agencies or departments in various U.S. territories, to ensure compliance with program regulations. Responses are submitted voluntarily and have a total burden of about 318 hours.
Simple Explanation
The Department of Agriculture wants to know what people think about a program to help grow more food in places where there isn’t enough. They need comments on how they can make it better and easier to understand.
