As part of its National Investment Plan for the Rural Sector, the government aims to transform the meat and milk sectors into pillars of economic development and ensure food security for the population.
The initiative, called PAPCV-VL, aims to establish value chains within agricultural, forestry, and pastoral activities.
On July 6th, the Minister of Livestock outlined the main objectives:
– Increase productivity
– Expand meat exports
– Boost employment opportunities and secure incomes for producers
– Ensure food supply in terms of volume and quality.
The African Development Bank (AfDB) has fully financed this project with a budget of 20 million euros. The project will be implemented over a period of five years.
