PERFORMANCE GOAL #4 — Enhanced Food Security and Agricultural Development

Program Goal: Agriculture-led Income Opportunities Expanded

Capacity of organizations and individuals to support the production and distribution of food and marketable agricultural goods.

Performance Indicator #1: Level of Agricultural Sector Growth
FY Results History	2002	N/A (new indicator in FY 2004)
	2003	N/A (new indicator in FY 2004)
	2004	172 agricultural technologies made available for transfer through USAID programs. Number of developing countries undertaking field trails and/or commercial approval of bioengineered crops: 9. 115,717 producer organization, trade, and business associations assisted by USAID.
FY 2005 Data	2005 Preliminary or Provisional Results	180 agricultural technologies made available for transfer through USAID programs. Number of developing countries undertaking field trials and/or commercial approval of bioengineered crops: 11. 10,759 producer organization, trade, and business associations assisted by USAID.
	Target	176 agricultural technologies made available for transfer through USAID programs. Number of developing countries undertaking field (trails) and/or commercial approval of bioengineered crops: 10. 10,000 producer organization, trade, and business associations assisted by USAID.
	Rating	Exceeded Target
	Impact	Biotechnology capacity: Expanding the number of countries who are integrating biotechnology into agricultural and food systems will both improve global acceptance of these crops and broaden the economic and environmental benefits of this technology, particularly to developing countries. USAID contributes to this in two ways: in the development of new bioengineered crops aimed at the needs of developing countries, and by support for the development and implementation of sound biotechnology regulatory systems which facilitate field trials, and eventually, commercialization. As a result of this assistance, bioengineered cotton began field trials in Mali in early 2005.

Program Goal: Food Security

Ensure that vulnerable populations have access to food.

Performance Indicator #1: Number of People Receiving Title II Food Assistance

	2004	96,387,000 people received Title II Food Assistance
FY 2005 Data	2005 Preliminary or Provisional Results	100,000,000 people received Title II Food Assistance.
	Target	100,000,000 people receiving Title II Food Assistance.
	Rating	On Target
