Western Hemisphere Division

The Department of Agriculture Foreign Agricultural Service Western Hemisphere Division is a civilian sub-agency within USDA that procures services and communications support for agricultural diplomacy and trade promotion across the Americas. The Division has issued three federal contracts cumulatively since 2020, totaling $104 thousand in combined potential value, with all dollars obligated. Recent contract volume is minimal: one award in 2020, one in 2025, and one most recently on September 1, 2026.

All three contracts are issued on an unrestricted basis with no set-aside designations. The competitive landscape is highly fragmented; A1 Agroservicios Inc. holds the largest single award at $84 thousand (one contract), while 9 / 90 Television Inc. holds $19 thousand (one contract). Three distinct prime contractors have been awarded cumulatively across the portfolio history. The dollar volumes and sparse award cadence indicate this is a low-velocity procurement environment focused on niche service delivery rather than a major contracting hub.

No recent contract opportunities are recorded against the Division. Businesses pursuing work with this office should monitor USDA and FAS contracting channels for emerging solicitations, as the irregular award pattern and small contract values suggest opportunity flow is episodic rather than sustained.
