This report summarises results of a rapid country scan on the agriculture-nutrition nexus in the
Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI). Research included a desk review of accessible policies,
programmes and other documents, published and unpublished, as well as a field mission to RMI
from 11 to 30 December 2017. The mission allowed additional quantitative and qualitative data
gathering with interviews, site visits and a small seminar to debrief interviews, present
preliminary findings and discuss potential follow-up with some stakeholders.
This Forest Action Plan identifies the RMI’s highest priorities for forest resource management and needs for assistance from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service (USFS). State assessments and resource strategies are integral to the Forest Service’s State and Private Forestry (S&PF) redesign and required as an amendment to the Cooperative Forestry Assistance Act (CFAA), as enacted in the 2008 Farm Bill.

The process provided the basis upon which this NSP: its Vision, Objectives, Context and Strategies were developed.
