Six more Tennessee agricultural businesses can grow and impact rural and urban economies through grant awards from the AgTrack program.

“AgTrack is an investment in Tennessee’s agricultural future,” Agriculture Commissioner Andy Holt said. “These grants support Gov. (Bill) Lee’s priorities of job creation and economic development and aid businesses that add value, create jobs, and open new markets for farmers and forest landowners.”

AgTrack is a competitive grant initiative that provides funding to new or growing agricultural, food, and forestry enterprises, along with nonprofits, local governments, and other eligible organizations operating in Tennessee or carrying out projects within the state. This cost-share program prioritizes value-added and processing efforts designed to support and create benefits for fellow producers and forest landowners.

Created in 2024, AgTrack continues to support innovation and growth across the state’s agricultural sector.
