DESCRIPTION

Precise Definition(s): Investment is defined as any use of private sector resources intended to increase future production output or income, to improve the sustainable use of agriculture-related natural resources (soil, water, etc.), to improve water or land management, etc. The “food chain” includes both upstream and downstream investments. The indicator only includes capital investments. It does not include operating capital, for example, for inputs or inventory. Upstream investments include any type of agricultural capital used in the agricultural production process such as animals for traction, storage bins, and machinery. Downstream investments could include capital investments in equipment, etc. to do post-harvest transformation/processing of agricultural products as well as the transport of agricultural products to markets. “Private sector” includes any privately-led agricultural activity managed by a for-profit formal company.

A CBO or NGO resources may be included if they engage in for-profit agricultural activity. “Leveraged by Feed the Future implementation” indicates that the new investment was directly encouraged or facilitated by activities funded by ADVANCE 2. Investments reported should not include funds received by the investor from USG as part of any grant or other award. New investment means investment made during the reporting year.

Unit of Measure: US Dollars

Disaggregated by:  None

Rational or justification for indicator (optional):
Increased investment is the predominate source of economic growth in the agricultural and other economic sectors. Private sector investment is critical because it indicates that the investment is perceived by private agents to provide a positive financial return and therefore is likely to lead to sustainable increases in agricultural production. Agricultural growth is critical to achieving the Feed the Future goal to “Sustainably Reduce Global Poverty and Hunger.”
