Income Sources. Funding sources will include state allocation per pupil, federal start-up grants, private grants, business partnerships, and donations.
Income Sources. The primary funding sources are the Idaho state allocations. Other sources include Federal start- up grant (estimated at $130K year 1), private grants (initially Albertson’s Foundation at $100K), business partnerships, and donations.
Income Sources. Our source of income is only our products that we are selling and assets however we manage financial sources in the form of loan from the bank but if only considering income the basic source of income is our products and our assets that are used to assist us in selling these products in the market.
Income Sources. Seed farmers derive about 46 percent of their income from crop and forest production (see table 3.7). Seed production is the second most important source of income and represents 31 percent of total income. There is little variation between GPS farmers and PSI farmers in the share of seed production in total income, suggesting that seed production is part of a strategy of rural income diversification rather than being the main source of income. The third main source of income comes from non farm activities, representing 13.2 percent of total income.

Moreover, irrigated rice seeds provide almost twice as much income as rain- fed rice seeds (see table 3.8). PSI farmers are, however, more specialized in irrigated rice than GPS farmers. Among other types of seeds, manioc, groundnuts, and wheat contribute 11-12 percent of total income. GPS farmers are more specialized in these products than PSI farmers.
