What We Do

Feed the Future Global Supporting Seed Systems for Development's (S34D) global experts in formal and informal seed systems, and humanitarian and emergency aid programming provide technical assistance that complements ongoing host government and USAID investments. S34D is unique in that we operate on the interface between different seed systems. Technical Assistance addresses identified needs and gaps in the seed system and will strengthen the seed system to meet the agriculture-led inclusive economic growth objectives from the host government and USAID. S34D’s vision is to improve choices for farmers to access quality seeds for resilient livelihoods. S34D’s goal is to improve the functioning of seed systems through customized services to upgrade seed systems.
