    Citrus Research and Development Foundation

    In 2009, the Citrus Research and Development Foundation, Inc. (CRDF) was formed to coordinate citrus research funding in the face of huanglongbing (HLB, also known as “citrus greening”). While it addresses the full array of citrus research needs, CRDF has focused on HLB because it represents an existential threat to the Florida citrus industry.

  • RFP - Numerous specific topics regarding HLB mitigation strategies

    The purpose of this CRDF request for pre-proposals (RFP) is to solicit research projects that develop management strategies to improve citrus tree health, fruit yield and quality in HLB-affected trees. Pre-proposals should be for hypothesis-driven, knowledge-building research projects, the results of which will lead to near-term solutions to HLB. Researchers are encouraged to submit pre-proposals to address the topics outlined in this announcement that are narrow in scope. Pre-proposals must be submitted to catp@citrusrdf.org no later than 5:00 pm Eastern time on Monday, April 29, 2024. LEARN MORE »
