Prior to 2015-2016, the Texas Hunger Initiative provided their analysis of Texas Department of Agriculture data. From 2015-2016 onward, Texas Department of Agriculture data is accessed from the Texas Open Data Portal.
The Texas Hunger Initiative, a project of Baylor University, conducts university-based research to determine what anti-hunger efforts are effective and provides the support and expertise to coordinate work in communities—finding solutions to food insecurity that are greater than the sum of their parts.
