Binh Dinh Department of Agriculture and Rural Development on December 18 held a seminar to kick off the sustainable rural livelihood project, linking poor farmers to markets.
The project has a total capital of 2.14 million USD, of which the NZ government finances more than 1.7 million USD and the province contributes the rest.
It aims to help Binh Dinh province to improve capacity for its agriculture business sector, thus bringing sustainable socio-economic benefit to poor households in the province.
The four-year project includes support to help Tuy Phuoc and Tay Son districts increase recognised safe vegetable volume, development of marketing chances for small coconut tree-growing households in Hoai Nhon and Phu My districts, improving the efficiency of small and large-scaled cattle breeding systems, and effectively linking poor farmers to markets and project management.
