Yes. As long as the person or entity purchasing the equipment is in Minnesota and the equipment will be used in Minnesota, it can be purchased from somewhere out of state.
Yes, you can include equipment shipping costs in your cost estimate when you submit your application.
You can submit an application for any equipment not listed under the “ineligible expenses” section of the RFP. Rather than MDA providing a finite list of eligible equipment, we are asking that applicants present an explanation for how the equipment they want to buy is necessary to advance soil health on their operation.
Applicants must be owners or lessees of farmland in Minnesota. It must be the owner or lessee of farmland involved in a given operation who applies for a grant on behalf of that operation. Local government units (including cities, towns, counties, soil and water conservation districts, Tribal nations, and joint powers boards) do not have to be owners or lessees of farmland to apply.
No money can be spent on the equipment until the grant is awarded and a grant contract agreement is signed by the Commissioner of Agriculture.
