Food security is fundamental to global stability. At a time when billions of people around the world lack access to sufficient food, DFC investments in food security and agribusiness advance U.S. national security by fostering global stability.
DFC invests to expand food production and to support innovative businesses that are modernizing food supply chains with more efficient ways to manufacture, store, and transport food.
A DFC investment is supporting agri-tech platforms designed to help millions of farmers access vital information and enabling the purchase of seeds, fertilizers, and other inputs needed to enhance their yields and expand their market reach.
A DFC loan will help Victory Farms, the largest producer of tilapia in Sub-Saharan Africa, more than triple production and double its number of distribution branches to expand availability of this affordable and high-protein fish.
