MONITORING OF THE FOLLOW-UP TO THE DECISION ON
MEASURES CONCERNING THE POSSIBLE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF
THE REFORM PROGRAM ON LEAST-DEVELOPED AND NET
FOOD-IMPORTING DEVELOPING COUNTRIES:  Canada
REPORTING PERIOD:  1999/2000
_________________________________________________________________________________
(1) Quantity of food aid provided to least-developed and net food-importing developing
countries:
For the period of 1 August 1999 to 31 July 2000, Canada provided a total of 289,464 tonnes
of food aid to Least-Developed Countries (LDC s) and Net Food-Importing Developing Countries
(NFIDCs).  This volume of food aid had a total value of $104.731 million in 1999/2000.  See Table A,
"Canadian Food Aid to LDCs and NFIDCs, 1 August 1999 – 31 July 2000", which provides
information for the period in question on the quantit y of Canadian food aid provided to LDCs and
NFIDCs with a breakdown by region and individual country and by commodity, quantity in metrictonnes, total value, and value of the portion which is channelled through the World Food Programme
(WFP).
2  In addition to the food aid directed to these specific LDCs and NFIDCs, $2.01 million worth
of Canadian food aid was distributed through the WFP to 'Central America Regional', a portion of this
food aid may have impacted on LDCs and NFIDCs in the region.
In addition, in FY1999/20003, Canada provided a total of $85.97 million in food aid to other
developing countries (non-LDCs and NFIDCs).
In accordance with the Food Aid Convention (FAC 1999), for the crop year 1 July, 1999 to 30
June 2000, Canada fully met its undertaking to provide a minimum of 420,000 tonnes of food aid in
wheat equivalent for that period.

(3) Technical and financial assistance under paragraph 3(iii) of the Decision:
The Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) is the primary agency responsible
for the disbursement of Canadian official development assistance (ODA).  CIDA delivers programs
through bilateral (government-to-government) channels, partnership programs, as well as through
multilateral channels.
In FY1999/2000, Canada provided an estimated4 total of $2.02 billion in ODA, of which
CIDA managed $1.61 billion.  $125.61 million was channelled via the International Development
Research Centre (IDRC) which undertakes bilateral projects with a scientific or research focus.  The
Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) is responsible for a small portion ofODA for certain grants and contributions to international organizations, which usually have only a
partial development mandate.  Finally, the Department of Finance is also responsible for a portion of
Canadian ODA involving contributions to the World Bank, the International Development Agency
(IDA) and the Enhanced Structural Adjustment Fa cility of the International Monetary Fund (IMF
).5
                                                     
4 At time of writing, a final total was not available. The figure indicated is a preliminary amount.
5 In addition, a small amount of Canada's ODA is channelled via other government agencies (the Export
Development Corporation, Canada Post) and provincial governments.G/AG/N/CAN/42
Page 5
The ODA contributions managed by the Department of Finance do not fall within the purview
of this notification.  Information related to agriculture and related technical assistance6 provided to
LDCs and NFIDCs via CIDA, IDRC and DFAIT in FY1999/2000 is set out below.
THE CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AGENCY
Bilateral (Government-to-Government) Programmes
CIDA's bilateral assistance is delivered through three geographic branches (Africa & the
Middle East, Asia, and Americas & the Caribbean) as well as a special program for Central and
Eastern Europe7. Total bilateral programming (for the three core geographic regions) was $700.03
million in FY1999/20008.
Canadian Bilateral programming consists of government-to-government programs and
projects which are carried out in accordance with bilateral agreements and planned in co-operation
with the country via the Country Development Policy Frameworks (CD PFs).  In FY 1999/2000,
bilateral programming supported 463 projects in 58 of the LDCs and NFIDCs for a total value of $
296.00 million.  This represents approximately9 42 per cent of the total amount of Canadian bilateral
programs.  $23.98 million worth of bilateral prog ramming directed at LDCs and NFIDCs, was in
agriculture and related programming, which is approximately 3.4 per cent of total Canadian bilateral
ODA, and approximately 8.1 per cent of the bilateral programming going to these countries. Countryspecific information on agricultural and relate d technical support to LDCs and NFIDCs via the
bilateral channel, in FY 1999/2000 is as follows:
                                                     
6 For the purposes of Section 3 of this Notification, as regards technical and financial assistance identified under
paragraph 3(iii) of the Decision, information is restricted to agricultural and related activities:  agricultural production,
infrastructure, harvesting, human resource development activ ities in the agriculture sector, and education related to
agriculture.  In addition to agriculture and related technical and financial assistance, Canada supports other sectors which
contribute to food security. While not requested by the Agriculture Committee for this Notification, Canada has voluntarily
provided this additional information.  See Table G on Canadian technical assistance in the agro-forestry and fishery sectorswhich contribute to food security in the countries in question.
7 In addition to ODA, Canada provides aid to More Advance Developing Countries and some other Countries in
Transition identified as DAC Part II countries.
8 Due to a delay in the compilation of CIDA financial reporting for the FY1999/2000 period, total ODA
information for this annual NF:1 reporting are onl y preliminary and still subject to minor variation.
9 Percentages are approximates based on a calculation using preliminary figures and should be considered

Multilateral Core Funding
Table C below represents CIDA's total FY 1999/2000 contribution to specific multilateral
organizations with mandates that relate, completely or in part, to agriculture and/or food security.Given the nature of multilateral organizations' funding and programming activities, no specific
portion of Canadian contributions can be identified as targeted directly to LDCs or NFIDCs.G/AG/N/CAN/42
Page 7
Nevertheless, Canadian support to the World F ood Programme (WFP) and the Consultative Group on
International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) in particular, are likely to be relevant to this
notification.

Canadian Partnership Branch
The Canadian Partnership Branch (CPB) supports the activities of international non-
governmental organizations (NGOs) and Canadian organizations, academic & research institutions
and private sector firms in their development programs and projects with people and organizations of
developing countries. It is comprised of five divisions:
- the Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) Division provides contributions for projects and
programs that build partnerships including support for:  International Non-Governmental
Organizations (INGOs); Canadian NGO programmes; volunteer sending agencies; and the
NGO project facility;
- the Institutional Cooperation Division (ICD ) focuses on overseas development-related
activities of Canadian post-secondary institutions including support for the Educational
                                                     
10 Only a  portion of CIDA’s voluntary support to UNDP and UNICEF can be attributed to agriculture and related
sectors.
11 See number 10 .
12 CIDA's IHA program has the following areas for interventio n:  emergency health and nutrition,  basic education,
water and sanitation,  shelter,  integrated basic human n eeds and peace building. Activities in support of agriculture and
related programming would likely fall within the integrated basic human needs component, part of which can be assumed tobe targeted at LDC and NFIDCs.
13 CGIAR Research Centres core funding includes funds directed to: the Centre for International Forestry
Research (CIFOR), International Assistance for Strengthenin g National Agricultural Research (ISNAR), International Centre
for Agricultural Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA), Intern ational Centre for Living Aquatic Resources Management
(ICLARM), International Centre for Tropi cal Agriculture (CIAT), International Co uncil for Research in Agro-forestry
(ICRAF), International Crops Research Institute for Semi-A rid Tropics (ICRISAT), International Food Policy Research
Institute (IFPRI), International Institute for Tropical Agriculture (IITA), International Irrigation Management Institute(IIMI), International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), International Maize and Wheat Improvement Centre (CIMMYT),
International Network for the Improvement of Banana and Plantain (INIBAP), International Plant Genetic Resources
Institute (IPGRI), International Potato Centre (CIP), Inte rnational Rice Research Institute (IRRI), West-African Rice
Development Association (WARDA) as well as the Canada-CGIAR Linkage Fund (CCLF).  Also included in this amount isfunding provided to the Commonwealth Agricultural Bureau International (CABI).G/AG/N/CAN/42

Institutions Program (EIP) as well as a sect ion for scholarships; Environmenta l NGOs ; and
Institutions. Also included in this division are the Cooperative, Unions and Professional
Associations Program (CUPA) which encourages cooperation through these groups;
- the Industrial Cooperation Division (INC), facilitates development-related activities with the
Canadian private sector;
- the Youth Action Division is geared to promoting youth action for development;- finally, the Policy, Strategy, Planning and Operations (PSPO) Division is largely a policy
group but also undertakes special programs such as: funding to facilitate NGO participation at
international conferences.
In FY 1999/2000, CPB disbursed a total of $272 million on some 1,451 projects and
programs.  CPB support is designed to be flexible and responsive to the diversity of civil society and
complex development needs.  Therefore, it is ofte n cross-sectoral in nature and can involve multiple
numbers of countries and/or regions, as well as a variety of mechanisms for funding activitiesincluding via program and project.  Consequently, it is difficult, in a large portion of the
disbursements being channelled through Canadian voluntary organizations, to identify data on
specific sectors of activities or in particular countries (in this case agriculture related activities in
LDCs and NFIDCs). The exception is the Industrial Co-operation Program, where country and sector
specificity is possible. The following two tables (Table D and E) provide data for CPB programmingfor LDCs and NFIDCs for the INC program, and for the other Voluntary programs as a whole, where
there is indication of agricultural and related project activity.

$1.14 million was disbursed on 16 agriculture and related projects operating in 12 LDCs and/or
NFIDCs.  Agriculture programming directed at LDCs and NFIDCs, therefore, represents about 44 per
cent of the total agricultural activity of the INC program and 3 per cent of the total overall INCprogram.

For the "CPB Voluntary Program" (excluding  INC), total disbursements for FY 1999/2000
were $232  million on more than 1,000 programs, projects and activities.  Some 282 agriculture and
related projects, with a total value of $8.25 millio n, were operational in 44 LDCs/NFIDCs.  It is

THE INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH CENTRE (IDRC)
The International Development Research Centre (IDRC) is a Canadian public corporation,
which supports scientific research focused to meet the priorities of developing countries and the basic
needs of the world's poor. In FY1999/2000 its tota l budget (including administrative costs) was
$125.61 million. In FY 1999/2000, IDRC undertook disburse ments in the agriculture sector totalling
$7.48 million, which represented about 6% per cent of their total allocation.
A review for FY1999/2000 of IDRC projects disb ursing in LDCs and NFIDCs in agriculture
and related sectors, identified some 49 projects with a value of $2.9 million (about 39% of all
disbursements in agriculture) as per the following Table F:

DEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS AND INTERNATIONAL TRADE
Canada's annual core contributions to multilateral organizations such as the Food and
Agricultural Organization (FAO), the Inter-American  Institute for Co-operation on Agriculture (IICA)
and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) are channelled through the Department of
Foreign Affairs and International Trade.  In FY1999/2000, these contributions were, respectively,
$12.6, $4.9 and $1.8 million.  A portion of these contributions can be assumed to contribute to foodsecurity related activities because of the mandates of these multilateral organizations.
(4) Other relevant information with respect to actions taken within the framework of the
Decision:
Some Canadian provincial governments also have small international assistance programs
which may provide agriculture and related technical assistance to LDCs and NFIDCs.
Canadian aid offices in developing countries administer small Mission Administered Funds
(MAFs) which respond to small-scale, country specific requests.  Some of these funds, where they
exist in LDCs and NFIDCs, may have agriculture and related sector impacts.
Table G is included as a Voluntary Submission to this Notification.  This table provides
information on Canadian technical assistance to LDCs and NFIDCs in the sectors of fisheries and
agro-forestry.  This table has been included to  ensure that the Committee is provided with full
information on technical assistance provided by Canada, which contributes to the food security
situation of the countries in question.G/AG/N/CAN/42
