During their field visit, Paulsen and Sanches, accompanied by the Ambassador of Canada, André François Giroux; the Deputy Ambassador of the United States, Usha Elizabeth Pitts; and the Director General of the Ministry of Agriculture, Moise Elancie; oversaw the results of previous key emergency and resilience initiatives, specifically in key value chains like milk production as well as vegetable, small livestock production, and school feeding program in the commune of Marfranc.

Agriculture remains a critical lifeline for 75% of the people affected by food insecurity in Haiti. Providing crisis-affected households, including internally displaced people and host communities, with urgent emergency agricultural support is essential for survival, and to boost food production and restore their livelihoods. However, insufficient funding remains a critical obstacle. The cost of inaction is high since affected population will be more vulnerable with increased humanitarian assistance needs. Not investing now in agriculture emergencies and resilience will cost more.  

Evidence from 2023 FAO interventions show that an investment of $480 can support a family of five people to grow staple food for up to six months, and an investment of $200 provided 100 grams of seed, and enabled households to produce on average ten different types of nutritious vegetables worth around $2 500 on the local market.
