A reminder NC Meat Producers and Processors deadline
Permalink  

NC Meat Producers and Processors,
A reminder that the deadline for applications for this program is December 14th, 2012. Meat producers are encouraged to forward this opportunity to the meat processors they work with and offer assistance in identifying common goals and submitting this application in partnership. 
These funds are available to meat processors for in-house assistance including meat fabrication and process training as well as technical and business consultants. 
Review the attached RFA completely and contact casey@ncchoices.com for more information. See original announcement for the request for applications below.

NC Choices, with funding from the NC Rural Center and in partnership with the NC Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, requests applications for participation in the NC Choices Meat Processor Business Development Assistance Program (MPBDA Program). The MPBDA Program seeks to fund innovative projects designed to advance the local and niche meat processing sector in North Carolina.  Of particular interest are projects that enhance existing small-scale meat processors’ capacity to provide high quality processing services for independent meat producers and food-service buyers.  Applications that demonstrate the ability to incorporate new knowledge, skills and equipment to improve the scope of services and expand capacity within meat processing businesses are highly encouraged.
The deadline for applications is December 14th, 2012.

Please see that attached pdf for more information or view the online version here.
