Support to Agricultural Production and Marketing Project-Western Expansion

The Support to Agricultural Production and Marketing Project (PROPACOM)– Western extension is the expansion to western Côte d'Ivoire and will complement the ongoing PROPACOM project which began implementation in the centre-north, north and northeast of the country in May 2013. PROPACOM – Western extension aims to reduce poverty and stimulate economic growth in the regions of Bafing, Béré, Folon, Kabadougou, Tonpki and Worodougou. The project will focus on increasing agricultural productivity of rice, maize, cassava and the vegetable value chain.

It will improve food security by increasing smallholder farmers' access to services, technologies and markets while strengthening the resilience of their production systems to climate change. In addition, the project will expand and improve the smallholder farmers' access to rural finance services.

PROPACOM – extension west will target 240,000 smallholders, particularly women and young people who are involved in food production, processing and marketing in an effort to improve their incomes and livelihoods.
