Book Description
The Australia Balochistan Agri-business Programme (AusABBA Phase II) (GCP/PAK/141/AUL) has been implemented by FAO in collaboration with the Government of Balochistan in six south-western districts with the objective to engage households in profitable agribusiness-based livelihoods and diversified strategies, and creating an enabling environment to increase their incomes, improve food security and enhance nutritional status. Working closely with men and women’s community organizations, farmers marketing collectives and mutual marketing organizations, AusABBA II has accomplished to establish 11 value chains businesses in dates, onions, grapes, cumin, tomatoes, alfalfa, carrots, pomegranate, sugar-melons, livestock fattening and wool, providing support in key interventions such as crops and livestock productivity, water resources management, market linkages and agribusiness. AusABBA II’s inclusive market system development approach is encouraging, innovative and has proven as one of FAO's flagship projects in the region, with an enormous potential for replication by relevant government departments and other development actors in Balochistan.

ISBN: 9251345317
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 81
Book Description
The FAO Investment Centre provides a wide range of support services to help countries make more and better investments in food and agriculture. This review looks back at the work the Centre carried out with its partners in 2020. Despite a challenging year amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the Centre’s global team supported investment-related policy and sector studies to increase policy dialogue and contributed to the design, technical assistance, supervision or evaluation of investment projects in 120 countries. The Centre increasingly linked both its policy work with investment support to scale up impact. And it promoted greater knowledge sharing and innovation, while also helping to strengthen the capacity of people and institutions to make better investment decisions. The Centre continues to remain relevant by adapting its skills and expertise to keep pace with a constantly evolving investment landscape and fast-changing world and by advocating for more sustainable agri-food systems.
