In a significant move to address the growing concern over per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the U.S. food supply, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced $3.2 million in research grants to two Texas institutions. Texas A&M University and Texas Tech University will each receive $1.6 million to conduct studies to reduce PFAS exposure in agricultural settings. This funding highlights the EPA’s ongoing commitment to protecting human health and the environment from the harmful effects of these persistent chemicals, particularly in farming communities.
