US Foundation for International Food Security: Global Agricultural Investment

This act establishes the U.S. Foundation for International Food Security to support agriculture globally, especially in needy countries. The goal is to increase food production, reduce hunger, and improve food systems through private investments. The Foundation will operate independently of the government, focusing on measurable outcomes and efficient use of funds.
Key points
A new foundation is being created to invest in agriculture outside the U.S. to help combat hunger and malnutrition.
The Foundation will seek partnerships with local organizations and businesses to ensure project sustainability and support local economies.
Funds will be allocated to projects with clearly defined goals and measurable outcomes, such as increased crop yields or farmer profits.
The Foundation will not support countries that promote terrorism or violate human rights, nor individuals subject to U.S. sanctions.
The Foundation's activities aim to strengthen U.S. national security by stabilizing regions affected by food insecurity.
