§ 1722. Provision of agricultural commodities
(a) Emergency assistance
Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
the Administrator may provide agricultural
commodities to meet emergency food needs
under this subchapter through governments and
public or private agencies, including intergov-
ernmental organizations such as the World Food
Program and other multilateral organizations,
in such manner and on such terms and condi-
tions as the Administrator determines appro-
priate to respond to the emergency.
(b) Nonemergency assistance
(1) In general
The Administrator may provide agricultural
commodities
for
nonemergency
assistance
under this subchapter through eligible organi-
zations (as described in subsection (d)) that
have entered into an agreement with the Ad-
ministrator to use the commodities in accord-
ance with this subchapter.
(2) Limitation
The Administrator may not use as a sole ra-
tionale for denying a request for funds sub-
mitted under this subsection because the pro-
gram for which the funds are requested—
(A) would be carried out by the eligible or-
ganization in a foreign country in which the
Agency for International Development does
not have a mission, office, or other presence;
or
(B) is not part of a development plan for
the country prepared by the Agency.
(3) Program diversity
The Administrator shall—
(A) encourage eligible organizations to
propose and implement program plans to ad-
dress 1 or more aspects of the program under
section 1721 of this title; and
(B) consider proposals that incorporate a
variety of program objectives and strategic
plans based on the identification by eligible
organizations of appropriate activities, con-
sistent with section 1721 of this title, to as-
sist development of foreign countries
