The Data Gateway links to NIFA Enterprise Search, which contains descriptions of current, publicly‐supported activities of the USDA agencies, the State Agricultural Experiment Stations, the State land‐grant colleges and universities, State schools of forestry, cooperating schools of veterinary medicine, Cooperative Extension Service, and USDA grant recipients.
