Resumen
Descripción
I.1. The Project to support tree crops and market–oriented agroforestry responds to the Ministry of Agriculture’s national targets of rehabilitating 95,000 ha of tree crops and agroforestry plantations, replanting 3,000 ha of old plantations, establishing 9,000 ha of new plantations and establishing 6,000 ha of community agroforestry within five years. The project forms part of the national strategic plan for the period 2006–2010. It also falls within the CAADP, particularly its pillars of susta inable land management and water control, and sustainable development of livestock, fisheries and forestry resources. Overall, the current government places agriculture as a top priority in its development agenda. I.2. In Liberia, a number of national and international development agencies have made interventions to revitalize the tree crops sector. A wider scale of intervention is required, coupling it with governmental action.
