Only one Concept note per organization/institution will be accepted

Funding Opportunity Description
The USAID John Ogonowski and Doug Bereuter Farmer-to-Farmer Program (F2F) promotes sustainable, broad-based economic growth in the agricultural sector as well as understanding by the public -- both in the United States and overseas -- of the importance of international development issues and the role of USAID in addressing them. F2F introduces innovation and develops local capacity for more productive, profitable, sustainable and equitable agricultural systems while providing opportunity for people-to-people interaction in agricultural development activities. F2F has four main objectives:

  • Increase agricultural sector productivity and profitability;
  • Improve conservation and sustainable use of environmental and natural resources; 
  • Expand agricultural sector access to financial services; and/or 
  • Strengthen agricultural sector institutions.  

F2F Programs build institutions and transfer technology and management expertise to link small farmers with markets that exploit comparative advantages in production, processing and marketing. Activities are varied and conform to country needs and strategic objectives. Specific F2F projects align with or support USAID Mission strategies and objectives or those of other USG programs in a given country.
