<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Public access is a critical part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and National Institute of Food and Agriculture’s (NIFA) support of Open Science. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As established in <a href="https://www.usda.gov/directives/dr-1020-006">
Departmental Regulation (DR) 1020-006</a>, the USDA will make all peer-reviewed, scholarly publications and digital scientific research data assets arising from unclassified scientific research supported wholly or in part by the USDA accessible to the public,
to the extent practicable. DR 1020-006 implementation began in FY 2023 (October 1, 2022) and applies to NIFA awards, contracts, and cooperative agreements. For more information on these public access requirements, see the
<a href="https://www.nifa.usda.gov/data/public-access-nifa-funded-work">Public Access for NIFA-Funded Work webpage</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To comply with DR 1020-006, NIFA deployed REEport updates on 10/30/2024. REEport Annual Progress Reports and REEport Final Reports now include updates to two fields and six new fields.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The REEport updates deployed on 10/30/2024 apply to all future submissions, including reports in<i> Draft</i> and
<i>Pending Submission to NIFA</i> status. No updates will be required on previously submitted reports unless they are returned to draft status in REEport after the release. If a submitted report is returned to draft status after the new fields are released,
the grantee will be required to complete the new fields before re-submission to NIFA.
<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">To review a detailed description of each new or updated field, see the applicable

<p class="MsoNormal">As outlined in the 2024 update of <a href="https://www.nifa.usda.gov/grants/regulations-and-guidelines/terms-conditions">
NIFA Terms and Conditions</a>, in addition to grant reporting in REEport, competitive grant recipients must use the National Agricultural Library’s
<a href="https://submit.nal.usda.gov/">PubAg</a> to report information on scholarly publications and/or
<a href="https://www.nal.usda.gov/services/agdatacommons">Ag Data Commons</a> for data assets. For more information on these requirements, see the
<a href="https://www.nifa.usda.gov/data/public-access-nifa-funded-work">Public Access for NIFA-Funded Work webpage</a>. NIFA is actively working with NAL to determine if there is a way to streamline data entry to eliminate duplication of work for grantees.<o:p></o:p></p>
