Background A 1996 report by the American Dietetic Association discussed the increased challenges of competing with conflicting nutrition messages that consumers receive from a variety of sources. The public needs science-based information that not only educates, but also encourages the adoption of more healthful nutrition-related behaviors. An update of this Association's report notes that research is needed to develop and test cost-effective methods for evaluating the efficacy of nutrition education programs. For effective behavior change, nutrition education programs must be based on the target audience's needs, behaviors, motivations, and desires. And the gap between knowledge of nutrition and actual healthful eating practices must be narrowed by providing nutrition information in a usable form to consumers (ADA, 1996).

SFMNP What is the Senior Farmers Market nutrition Program? At the Area Office on Aging of Northwestern ohio, says Liebes, older adults pick up coupons at http://www.fiu.edu/~nutreldr/Ask_the_Expert/SFMNP/SFMNP.htm
Extractions: Ask the Experts: Creative Solutions for Local Providers by Local Providers USDA Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program What is the Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program? The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) initiated the Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program (SFMNP) as a pilot program in 2001 to improve the diets of low-income seniors while providing the opportunity for farmers to enhance their business. The SFMNP has three purposes: (1) provide fresh, nutritious, fruits and vegetables from farmers' markets, roadside stands and community supported agriculture; (2) increase the consumption of agricultural commodities; and (3) aid in the development of new and additional farmers' markets, roadside stands, and community supported agricultural programs. USDA's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) announced the award of grants on 4/23/04 to operate the SFMNP during the 2004 season. A total of $16.7 million was available. The 2002 Farm Bill authorizes and provides $15 million annually to operate the SFMNP from Fiscal Year (FY) 2003 through (FY) 2007 . The SFMNP operated in 39 states, 6 Indian Tribal Organizations, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia during 2004, and served over 800,000 low income older adults According to Rebecca Liebes, Director of Nutrition, Area Office on Aging of Northwestern Ohio, participants of the SFMNP receive produce in a variety of ways, depending on the how the Program operates in a given state and/or area within the state. Some Programs deliver the produce to the individual; some provide coupons/vouchers to use at farm markets, farmers markets, or roadside stands; and some older adults become subscribers to community supported agricultural programs where they are provided a share of a farm's yield. Based on information from FNS, annual benefit levels vary from $15 to $315 in participating states; the average benefit level falls between $40-$50. Although limited in funding, Program benefits reflect the availability of produce and local operating costs.
