    A black-and-white photograph showing a worker in white uniform and cap operating industrial food processing or packaging machinery. A bag labeled 'AID/CSM' is visible on the equipment, suggesting this is a USAID food aid commodity processing facility. The setting appears to be an industrial plant or mill, likely from the mid-to-late 20th century.

    Fish Protein Concentrate (FPC) has the potential of feeding the world. Special processing plants, such as the Alpine FPC Plant at New Bedford, Mass., convert fish like hake into a powder which is nearly pure protein. This flour from the sea has no taste and can be added to a wide variety of foods to increase the nutritional value. The United States Agency for International Development has contracted for the production of FPC for pilot marketing projects in Chile.
