During the first half of FY2011, an estimated 3.1 million beneficiaries received 65,000 metric tons of commodities valued at $99 million. To date, USAID has provided 108,352 metric tons. styN mo���V�:yes'> From this, weekly and monthly reports are produced to inform donors and the relevant ministries in Afghanistan.
