the Future (FTF) is the U.S. Government’s (USG) global hunger and food security
initiative. Funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID),

overarching goal of alleviating poverty and improving nutrition through the
reliable provision of fish as an animal protein source. To achieve this goal,
the FIL will fund country-focused research and capacity building projects
implemented through competitive research grants. These grants will form an
integrated and multidisciplinary research program that enables the long-term
sustainable development of private infrastructure and small farm/fisheries
producers in Africa and Asia. Mississippi State University (MSU), the FIL
Management Entity (ME), will coordinate and manage this global research for
development program. This Request for Applications (RFA) focuses on FTF target
