Book excerpt: In FY 2010 through 2012, the U.S. government allocated $7 billion to implement global food security programs under the Feed the Future (FTF) initiative by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and its U.S. FTF partner agencies, which include the Depts. of Agriculture, State, and the Treasury, and the Millennium Challenge Corp. To enhance FTF efforts to increase agricultural productivity and reduce malnutrition in 19 chronically food insecure countries, USAID has outlined two approaches: an FTF whole-of-government approach, which aims to improve coordination and integrate expertise and resources of all FTF partner agencies; and a country-led approach to build country capacity to sustain U.S. efforts by including the host government and other stakeholders in planning and implementation. This report examined (1) the extent to which USAID has implemented a whole-of-government approach and (2) how USAID has facilitated a country-led approach. Tables and figures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive overview of local food systems explores alternative definitions of local food, estimates market size and reach, describes the characteristics of local consumers and producers, and examines early indications of the economic and health impacts of local food systems. Defining ¿local¿ based on marketing arrangements, such as farmers selling directly to consumers at regional farmers¿ markets or to schools, is well recognized. Statistics suggest that local food markets account for a small, but growing, share of U.S. agricultural production. For smaller farms, direct marketing to consumers accounts for a higher percentage of their sales than for larger farms. Charts and tables.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The President's Budget for Fiscal Year 2012 represents his blueprint for America's future that the White House sends to Congress each year. To win the future, we have to out-innovate, out-educate and out-build the rest of the world, tapping the creativity and imagination of our people. We have to take responsibility for our deficit, by investing in what makes America stronger and cutting what doesn't. And we have to reform our government so that it's smarter, leaner, and better able to take on the challenges of the 21st century. The President's Budget is his plan to do just that. The full Budget and additional information is available at WhiteHouse.gov/winning-the-future.
