Project Description

Cambodia's agriculture sector is characterized as low value added, low productive, and natural resource exhaustive. They are caused by: (i) poor and climate-vulnerable agricultural production and service infrastructure; (ii) underdeveloped agricultural value chains; and (iii) unsustainable natural resources management exacerbated by climate change. The Agricultural Value Chain (AVC) Infrastructure Improvement Project (the project) aims to tackle the core sector problem of low productivity, low value addition, and low resource efficiency of Cambodia's agriculture with the following outputs: (i) post-harvest and logistic facilities strengthened; (ii) agricultural production and service infrastructure improved; (iii) rural connectivity and disaster risk management capacity improved; and (iv) business partnership among value chain stakeholders enhanced (see detailed description of the outputs in the concept paper). These outputs will result in the following outcome: value addition to selected agricultural products in the project area increased. The project will be aligned with the following impact: value addition in agriculture sector enhanced.
