Chickasaw Nation Governor Bill Anoatubby, right, and Murray State College
President Dr. Tim Faltyn recently signed documentation to acknowledge their
respective institutions’ partnership in a USDA Climate-Smart grant.

Chickasaw Nation Gov. Bill Anoatubby and Murray State College President Dr. Tim
Faltyn announced their respective institutions’ partnership in a U.S. Department
of Agriculture Climate-Smart grant, which focuses on enhancing climate-smart
agriculture practices.

“We are grateful for Governor Anoatubby and the opportunity to collaborate on
the Climate-Smart grant to expand our agriculture program, and serve local
farmers and special populations,” Faltyn said. “The program will strengthen
Murray State’s academic programs and partnership with the Chickasaw Nation.”

The USDA partnership with the Chickasaw Nation and Murray State College,
Tishomingo, Oklahoma, allows the Chickasaw Nation and other Oklahoma pecan
producing landowners to receive incentive payment for market pecans after they
implement soil health and conservation best management practices on their lands.




The USDA Climate-Smart grant is a five-year, $5 million grant from November 2023
through November 2028. It is expected that a minimum of 150 farmers, both pecan
and specialty crop growers, may benefit, according to a press release.

As an incentive to offset low commodity prices, $2.4 million will go back to
pecan farmers who will be compensated for performing climate-smart practices,
which help both local ecology and watershed health, the release stated.

A total of $475,000 will go toward marketing climate-smart produce to ensure
farmers are compensated fairly, and consumers understand the positive impacts
farmers are making in local watersheds and their communities.




Additionally, the Chickasaw Nation’s Bedré Fine Chocolate company will now have
the opportunity to source pecans grown within the Chickasaw Nation, the release
stated.

Murray State College was awarded approximately $1.9 million. According to MSC’s
website, the resulting new program is designed to provide education to
underserved students and local farmers about agriculture practices on a small
scale.

MSC said it will build a curriculum to train underserved students about the
importance of agriculture, using clean practices to preserve the environment,
lessen herbicide and pesticide use, as well as using sustainable practices in
specialty crops like native pecans and produce sold at local farmers markets.

Forty-five MSC students will receive $5,000 scholarships over the five-year
period and benefit from participating in ranching, agriculture technology and
horticulture associate programs.

“A climate-smart verification class will train students to be able to identify
climate-smart practices on participating farms. This will give them experience
to find jobs locally or nationally later, as USDA plans to expand this program,”
the release stated.

Funds for the grant allocation to MSC will aid in hiring a project coordinator,
full-time faculty and purchase needed equipment and supplies, as well as provide
student scholarships, the release stated.
