Sustainable Agriculture & Natural Resource Management (SANREM) CRSP

The Sustainable Agriculture and Natural Resource Management Collaborative Research Support Program (SANREM CRSP) is sponsored by the U.S. Agency for International Development's Economic Growth, Agriculture, and Trade Bureau (USAID/EGAT) and participating U.S. and host country institutions around the world.

The objective of the SANREM CRSP is to support sustainable agriculture and natural resource management (SA and NRM) decision makers in developing countries by providing access to appropriate data, knowledge, tools, and methods of analysis; and by enhancing their capacity to make better decisions to improve livelihoods and the sustainability of natural resources.

History

In 1991, Congress requested that the United States National Research Council (NRC) outline a strategy for U.S. universities to carry out research to support the needs of sustainable agriculture and natural resource management in developing countries. The council recommended that universities in the U.S. to collaborate with colleges and interest groups in other countries to research sustainable agricultural practices and best natural resource management methods. These recommendations, reported in Toward Sustainability (NRC, 1991), led to the creation of the SANREM CRSP and the subsequent United States Agency for International Development (USAID) cooperative agreement, led by the University of Georgia. In 2004, Virginia Tech was named the management entity for SANREM CRSP, and its headquarters were moved to Blacksburg, VA.
