Farmers Market Promotion Program

Interim Performance Report OMB No. 0581‐0240


The interim report provides a status update regarding the progress made toward the objectives of your grant proposal. Particularly, recipients are expected to provide both qualitative and quantitative results to convey the activities and accomplishments of the work.


The report is limited to 6 pages and is due within 30 days of the project’s midpoint in the case of a planning grant, or every 6 months in the case of an implementation grant. Provide answers to each question, or answer “not applicable” or “no results available yet” where necessary. It is recommended that you email or fax your completed performance report to FMPP staff to avoid delays. Should you need to mail your documents via hard copy, contact FMPP staff to obtain mailing instructions:
