| dc.description | This flyer presents the gender responsive approach to mechanization piloted in Benin. In 2020, the government of Benin developed the National Strategy for Agricultural Mechanization (SNMA) – with FAO’s financial and technical assistance – presenting a clear vision and priorities for agricultural mechanization. As a first step towards operationalizing the strategy, FAO implemented this project, focused on women’s empowerment and income generation through mechanization (benefiting 15 rice, cassava and soja processing cooperatives in Glazoué, Savalou and Tchaourou), with the support of GIZ (ProCIVA project). The project was formulated as part of the collaboration between FAO and the GIZ Green Innovation Centres of Africa and Asia. Its implementation benefited from the experience and tools of key partners, such as the scaling scan by CIMMYT and the post-harvest approaches of GIZ. | |
