DAERA Research Challenge Fund

The DAERA Research Challenge Fund (RCF) is a key element of the DAERA Evidence and Innovation Strategy.




What is the DAERA Research Challenge Fund?

It gives small and medium sized businesses from the agri-food and other rural sectors an opportunity to get help with research and development. By providing grant assistance of up to 50% of eligible costs for research funding, the RCF seeks to encourage industry-led consortia to get involved in research projects.
