Responses to FY2020 Food for Progress NOFO Questions

Questions Received July 2 – 7, 2020

1. On page 15 and page 18 of the FFPr NOFO, USDA states that "the applicant must disclose its registration status in the target country(ies)" using 1 page of the Organizational Capacity and Staffing section. Can USDA confirm that applicants are not required to submit proof of official registration documents, as these would require separate attachments exceeding the page limit indicated in the NOFO?

A: Correct. Simple disclosure of whether an applicant is registered is all that is being requested as part of the application package. Should USDA require verification of registration it will be requested separately prior to making an award.

2. Page 60, West Africa Regional, Cashew, Metrics, provides the metric of “wealth growth (for Farmer and Capital Investment Funds)”.

a. Would USDA please confirm that “wealth growth (for Farmer and Capital Investment Funds)” is defined as the “growth of the investment capital in each fund, generated by the investments” A: Yes, this is correct.

b. If this is not the correct definition, would USDA please provide the definition of “wealth growth (for Farmer and Capital Investment Funds)”?

A: See above.
