Resumen
Descripción
Mozambique's agriculture sector is the largest part of its economy, directly contributing to about 23 percent to the country's gross domestic product (GDP) and employing around 80 percent of the workforce. The government approved a Programa Quinquenal do Governo 2020–2024 (PQG [Five-year Plan]) that includes plans for all sectors, including agriculture and there was the need to formulate updated specific guiding documents for the sector. The Government of Mozambique asked for assistance from FAO to create a broader programme for agriculture to speed up changes in the rural economy. Together, they developed UTF/MOZ/129/MOZ to help write strategic documents that will improve planning, improve agricultural statistics, and update related plans. The goal of this project was to support the development of strategic documents that serve as a guide for transforming the rural economy. A technical team from different ministries, led by MADER, along with input from key stakeholders like the private sector and civil society, worked on these documents. The Agricultural Sector Coordination Committee (CCSA) was tasked with overseeing the process, with FAO providing technical support.
