APHIS leads efforts to keep U.S. plants and animals healthy. Each year, we distribute millions of dollars to producer organizations, State and Federal agencies, Native American Tribes, universities, and others nationwide to support projects that help strengthen our Nation's safeguarding system and prevent, control, or mitigate pests or diseases.
