Agricultural Investments and Services Project (AISP)

General

The aim of the project was to improve the institutional and infrastructure environment for farmers and herders, with a strong emphasis on the livestock sector. Specifically, the project intended to increase the productivity of 61,000 farmers' households nationwide, particularly targeting livestock farmers, and reduce animal diseases that have a public health impact (e.g. brucellosis). With regard to land and natural resource governance, the project facilitated the development and adoption of the Pasture Law in 2009 by raising the awareness of decision makers and advising on legislative reforms. It further supported activities related to sustainable pasture management.
