Haiti's U.S. Rice Imports

by Nancy Cochrane, Nathan Childs, and Stacey Rosen

Efforts are underway in Haiti to improve agricultural performance and reduce dependence on imports. But even with productivity gains, Haiti is likely to continue to rely on imports of U.S. rice for a major part of its food supply.
