The project's overall objective was to improve services to farmers and foster a dialogue in the agriculture/livestock sector that will enable (local) professional organizations to focus on sustainable development.
Its immediate objectives included building stronger farmer organizations; developing professional networks; developing well-structured and functioning marketing chains and conducting a dialogue for balanced development. The expected outputs included providing new services to farmers; creating new platforms of consultation between local development actors, like farmer groups, communities, marketing networks, and extension service; and repositioning the results in the professional organizations (active in agriculture/livestock development).
