This project replicates the activities of two earlier rural development projects that were co-financed by OFID and aimed at reviving the agriculture sector. Activities will place a strong emphasis on local government and private sector involvement and expand support to producers’ associations, savings and credit organizations and SMEs. Activities will include:

  • construction/rehabilitation of feeder roads, rural water supplies, electricity connections, rural markets, village-level cold storage facilities and drying sheds; and
  • provision of technical advice and business development services.
Investments in these areas will be demand-driven, based on requests from communities, producers’ associations and other entities.
