| Summary: | This Credit of US$5 million was a
Learning and Innovation Loan ( LIL ) -- implemented
1999-2003 -- whose objective was to contribute to
revitalizing the country's agricultural and rural
economy by identifying policies and institutional mechanisms
to promote efficient, private sector-based local
agricultural input distribution and out put marketing
systems in order to raise modern farm input use among
farmers and thereby the productivity of labor and levels of
income in the rural sector. The project was implemented in
20 districts, representing about 25 percent of the total
number of districts. It affected 21,00 farm families, with
a population of 1.05 million, including about 1,000 lead
farmers and 1,000 Farmers'Associations. |
