Published purpose
The project aims to equip and train small holder farmers to grow more food, protect their local natural resources, encourage peace and stability, generate income and improve nutritional health in seven of South Sudan's ten states. Activities include: 1) providing basic agricultural inputs (seeds and tools) to enable small holder farmers to grow more food; 2) training and mentoring of farmers on crop production, post-harvest handling, processing and marketing, as well as on how to increase family incomes through product sales; and 3) improving women, men and children’s ability to organize and promote more inclusive government policies and services related to the agricultural sector. The proposed initiative is implemented by a consortium led by World Vision Canada with Oxfam Canada and Care Canada as members.
