How is this list built?

Fund listings come from SEC Form D filings (EDGAR) and are matched to food tech by searching for the term in each fund's legal name — we don't have a verified per-fund industry classification, so this list is directional, not exhaustive. Grant listings come from the Grants.gov API and are categorized using keyword matching against each opportunity's title and description.
