4 Sweet Sorghum, a coming crop that will only grow in importance as a food and energy crop, has actually declined over the last 4 years.

Mobile Cellular Phone Subscriptions per 1 Residents - Undata 28 Cell phone accounts Remittances (Orozco, World Bank 26) Even before the devastating Jan. 12 earthquake, remittances were a big part of Haiti's economy. In 29, $1.64 billion was sent to Haiti from abroad, constituting 26 percent of the country's GDP, according to the Inter-American Development Bank. In the wake of the disaster, development experts predicted that the Haitian Diaspora would start sending more money home. Fonkoze, a micro-finance NGO serving Haiti, has seen remittances more than double since the disaster. In 29, Fonkoze averaged 11,322 transfers per month totaling more than $3.9 million. In January, there were 13,694 transfers totaling more than $4.9 million (despite the fact that six of Fonkoze's 42 branches were inoperable after the quake). In February, they processed 23,849 transfers for more than $8.8 million. Fonkoze has also seen the average size of its remittances increase as well, from a $35 average in 29 to a $372 average in February. (National Journal, ) 6 April 3, 21
