Sector areas by decade, as a grid, a map and a Gantt. Placement uses the program, not the organization. Source: program sector profile

Programs of U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. Economic Research Service by sector and decade of start year. Cells are counts of programs. A program in two sector areas counts in each, so rows add up to more than the program count.

A picture of all lineage links among this organization's programs, grouped by country or sector. Source: succession links, program scope

U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. Economic Research Service ran 14 programs in 5 countries. The biggest clusters are Tunisia (2) and Niger (1).

Counts exclude 0 support mechanisms and untyped keys. Years are start years by award or document (basis shown in the table below).

? Likely, not confirmed No lineage links are known for these programs yet. That does not mean none exist: links are found from document text, and only some are recorded so far.

How to read this

Each row is a country (or a sector). Time runs left to right by the program's start year.
Each dot is a program. Bigger means more documents. Dots are not money.
Lines appear when you select a program or turn on Show lineage links. Solid: stated in a document. Dashed with a question mark: likely, not confirmed.

Rows are countries; regional and global programs have their own rows and are never a country. Dot placement is the program's start year; a program whose own years begin long before this organization's evidence is placed at the organization's first evidence year.

One row per program this organization is recorded as implementing, with years, role and what came after. Source: implementer records

14 programs, earliest start first unless sorted by documents. Role on every row: implementer (prime or sub is not recorded).

Programs where U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. Economic Research Service is recorded as implementer. Open a row for the basis of its years, the organization's own years, evidence, evaluation, what came after and co-implementers.
