BLINKEN, Democratic Staff Director (II) FOREWORD This volume of legislation and related material is part of a five volume set of laws and related material frequently referred to by the Committees on Foreign Relations of the Senate and Inter- national Relations of the House of Representatives, amended to date and annotated to show pertinent history or cross references. Volumes I (A and B), II, III and IV contain legislation and relat­ ed material and are republished with amendments and additions at the end of each annual session of Congress. Volume V, which contains treaties and related material, will not be revised every year, but only as necessary. We wish to express our appreciation to Dianne E. Rennack and C. Winston Woodland of the Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division of the Congressional Research Service of the Library of Congress who prepared volume I–A of this year’s compilation. HENRY J. HYDE, Chairman, Committee on International Relations. RICHARD G. LUGAR, Chairman, Committee on Foreign Relations. July 31, 2003. (III) EXPLANATORY NOTE The body of statutory law set out in this volume was in force, as amended, at the end of 2002. This volume sets out ‘‘session law’’ as originally enacted by Con­ gress and published by the Archivist of the United States as ‘‘slip law’’ and later in the series United States Statutes at Large (as sub­ sequently amended, if applicable). Amendments are incorporated into the text and distinguished by a footnote. Session law is orga­ nized in this series by subject matter in a manner designed to meet the needs of the Congress. Although laws enacted by Congress in the area of foreign rela­ tions are also codified by the Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives, typically in title 22 United States Code, those codifications are not positive law and are not, in most instances, the basis of further amendment by the Congress. Cross references to the United States Code are included as footnotes for the conven­ ience of the reader. All Executive orders and State Department delegations of au­ thority are codified and in force as of June 15, 2003. Corrections may be sent to Dianne Rennack at Library of Con­ gress, Congressional Research Service, Washington D.C., 20540– 7460, or by electronic mail at [email protected].

The greatest poten­ tial for significantly expanding world food production at relatively low cost lies in increasing the productivity of small farmers who con­ stitute a majority of the nearly one billion people living in those countries. Increasing the emphasis on rural development and expanded food production in the poorest nations of the developing world is a matter of social justice as well as an important factor in slowing the rate of inflation in the industrialized countries. In the allocation of funds under this section, special attention should be given to increasing agricultural production in the countries with per capita / incomes under $300 a year and which are the most severely affected by sharp increases in worldwide commodity prices."
