Basic Field Awards
On March 14, 2025, President Trump passed the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025 to fund the federal government. The act included flat funding for the Basic Field Grant.
The 2025 Basic Field Grant allocations also reflect adjustments based on the 2024 LSC Agricultural Worker Poverty Population estimates provided by the Department of Labor.
The final 2025 funding decisions are available in the Final 2025 Grant Allocations chart linked below. The funding chart shows the grantee, the grant amount, the grant type (the funding component), and the service area.
See the 2025 funding allocations under the Continuing Resolution.
