The overall objective of the project is to strengthen rice self-sufficiency and the incomes of populations in the South-West. The specific objective is to improve agricultural productivity to increase production in the South-West. The Project will benefit 63,700 people, including 35% women, who will derive their sources of income from agricultural employment. At least 4,000 direct jobs will be created through the project, through support to agribusiness, the promotion of essential services, the promotion of nutrition, and the execution of development works; Due to the close link between conflicts and food insecurity, the project aims to anticipate three major sources of fragility that can impact agriculture and food security, namely: recurrent exposure to climatic hazards, social inequality due to the low income of the local population, and the fragility/low capacity of structures responsible for water management and investments, for which the solution for the area is the improvement of crop irrigation.
