Scope
The OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) collects aid flow data at activity level based on a standard methodology and agreed definitions. Aid to agriculture includes Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Rural Development.
The definition of aid to agriculture excludes aid to other sectors which may have a direct or indirect effect on it such as food security, developmental food aid and emergency food aid.
