Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA FAS AFTPP 2026
The 2026 America First Trade Promotion Program (AFTPP) is a competitive grant opportunity offered by the USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service to support U.S. agricultural export growth. Through cost-sharing agreements, the program helps fund marketing and promotional activities aimed at expanding international markets for a wide range of American agricultural products, excluding tobacco.
Eligible applicants include nonprofit U.S. agricultural trade organizations, State Regional Trade Groups (SRTGs), U.S. agricultural cooperatives, and state government agencies. Both new and experienced applicants are encouraged to apply, especially those proposing innovative export promotion strategies in untapped or non-traditional markets. However, applicants already conducting USDA-funded promotions in a target market may not receive full credit for innovation in the review process.
All applicants must be actively registered in SAM.gov by the application deadline—submissions from organizations with expired, pending, or inactive registrations will be disqualified. No exceptions or extensions will be granted for SAM registrations.Apply for USDA FAS AFTPP 2026
