| Description:: | With the 2000 amendment of Title XII, Congress has directed that support be provided to mobilize the capacities of U.S. universities and public and private partners of universities for 1) global research on problems affecting food, agriculture, forestry, and fisheries; and 2) improved human capacity and institutional resource development for the global application of agriculture and related environmental sciences. These activities are intended to benefit both developing countries and the United States.
CRSP activities are long-term in nature and emphasize equally: (1) the development of capacity of the developing country participants to ultimately meet their own knowledge requirements; (2) the creation of new technologies and solutions to existing constraints under the specific topic of the CRSP; and (3) economic, health and social impacts. Research activities are conducted in collaboration with host-country researchers and institutions, and are structured so as to have a returning benefit to the U.S. institutions or U.S. agriculture more broadly. There are currently nine CRSPs addressing different sub-sectors of agriculture. One of these is the Assets and Market Access (AMA) CRSP. The AMA CRSP agreement expired September 30, 2011. The AMA CRSP proposed in this RFA will be a continuation, with some modification, to the previous AMA CRSP program. |
