  We argue that fields responsible for inflation and supersymmetry breaking are
connected by gravitational couplings. In view of the recent progress in
studying supersymmetry breaking in a metastable vacuum, we have shown that in
models of supersymmetric hybrid inflation, where R-symmetry plays an important
role, the scale of supersymmetry breaking is generated dynamically at the end
of inflation and turns out to be consistent with gravity mediation.
