Resumen
Descripción
The Project was initiated to enhance the capacities of the upland farmers for them to participate in the development processes. It was envisioned that by doing so they would improve their productivity while conserving the fragile agricultural resource base. It addressed first the problem of access to land. Then, it assisted in redesigning the farming system to improve productivity and prevent soil erosion. Responding to the lack of basic services in the area and in consultation with the co mmunities, the Project incorporated basic health services as one of the major interventions. Towards the end of the Project, it attempted to link the upland farmers to the local market.
