This project contributes to strengthening the agriculture sector in Nicaragua. It helps the Government of Nicaragua implement its Productive Rural Development Sector Program (known by its Spanish acronym PRORURAL). The goal of PRORURAL is to increase sustainable economic growth in rural areas and increase access to safe, nutritious food for poor rural women and men. PRORURAL helps farmers to increase their productivity and the quality of the food they produce; helps them to diversify their crops and transform their produce into higher-value products; and promotes sustainable use of forestry resources and improved management of the forestry sector. As with all sector support initiatives, Canada is working in close cooperation with other donors and the Government of Nicaragua to promote effective, transparent, and accountable country systems; increase donor coordination and harmonization; and strengthen mutual accountability. This initiative is continuously monitored and evaluated in coordination with other donors
