520    "The United States embarked on bold policies to enhance 
       its food and agricultural system during the last half of 
       the 19th century, investing first in the education of 
       people and soon thereafter in research and discovery 
       programs aimed at acquiring new knowledge needed to 
       address the complex challenges of feeding a growing and 
       hungry nation. Those policies, sustained over 125 years, 
       have produced the most productive and efficient 
       agricultural and food system in history. The U.S. 
       Department of Agriculture (USDA) is the primary agency 
       responsible for supporting innovations and advances in 
       food and agriculture. USDA funds are allocated to support 
       research through several mechanisms, including the 
       Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI). In 2008, 
       Congress replaced USDA's National Research Initiative with
       AFRI, creating USDA's flagship competitive research grants
       program, and the 2008 Food, Conservation, and Energy Act, 
       known as the Farm Bill, outlined the structure of the new 
       program. Spurring Innovation in Food and Agriculture 
       assesses the effectiveness of AFRI in meeting the goals 
       laid out by Congress and its success in advancing 
       innovations and competitiveness in the U.S. food and 
       agriculture system."--Publisher's description
