A university received FSMIP funding to identify best practices for sustaining profitable relationships between local producers and restaurants. The project developed strategies for verifying local purchasing and evaluated consumer willingness to pay for locally produced foods, thereby improving economic opportunities for farmers and strengthening rural economies.
