Food for Peace Development Assistance Program (DAP) — CFDA 98.007

Food for Peace DAP obligations at $1.21 billion

USAspending.gov records $1,209,126,670 in obligations under CFDA 98.007. Thirty-three awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $36,640,202 per award — among the largest per-row figures here and consistent with multi-year implementing-partner agreements. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical commodity price and not a cost per beneficiary.

The assistance-listing title is FOOD FOR PEACE DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (DAP). CFDA 98.007 is the identifier. Other food-aid or emergency listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $1.21 billion. Combining those codes would invent a combined food-aid total this packet does not contain.

13 recipients coded to 1 jurisdiction

Thirteen recipients share 33 awards, or about 2.5 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $1,209,126,670 evenly would assign about $93.01 million per recipient. That density is an implementing-partner pattern: a small organizational headcount carrying large multi-year rows. The packet does not list the 13. Recipient count is not a census of overseas missions, cooperatives, or households.

One jurisdiction in the geographic count is the distinctive coding on this listing. Food for Peace development dollars often post to a headquarters or single coded place of performance even when activities occur abroad. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table; do not read the 1 as “one country served.”

A single coded geography is not a country census

Among foreign-assistance listings, 98.007 is an extreme-concentration file: 33 rows, 13 recipients, 1 jurisdiction, about $36.6 million per award. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of country programs” and a worse proxy for tons shipped. Recipients (13) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (33) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report metric tons, beneficiaries, or countries of operation. Citing 33 as country programs or 1 as the only place food aid is delivered would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions.

Obligations versus food-aid outlays

The $1,209,126,670 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Food for Peace DAP awards — are not in the packet. A development-assistance file can show a large obligation stock while commodity and program draws follow a later calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

What the 98.007 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a shipping log, not a beneficiary roster, and not a country directory. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $1,209,126,670. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 33 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 1 jurisdiction is a coding field, not a map of food-insecure countries. Read the program page before treating that cell as the full operating geography. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to implementers. A researcher comparing 98.007 with other food-aid codes should keep CFDA numbers separate.
