Project Findings
• In the last 20 years Global Food & Ag R&D spend has increased at nearly twice the rate of that in the US, where public spending has been flat
• Since establishment, FFAR has built a unique and multi-pronged value proposition based on its public-private partnership model
• Industry highly values FFAR's ability to facilitate translation of research
• Stakeholders believe that FFAR can have an important & complementary role to play in public R&D with the USDA
• Stakeholders believe that FFAR's success to date and value proposition is enabled by its Congressional mandate and funding, and that continued Congressional funding is essential to sustaining FFAR’s scale of impact and ability to achieve its mission.
