Cooperation and Support for Profitable Agriculture-Forestry-Fisheries Operations
Agriculture or the agriculture-forestry-fisheries sector is strategically important for African development, being involved in food production, rural development, poverty reduction and environment-friendly economic development.
Agriculture represents the largest private sector component in Africa. At TICAD V, Prime Minister Abe advocated support for “agriculture that enables the farmer to earn money” and introduced the SHEP (Smallholder Horticulture Empowerment Project) model that has been created and diffused by JICA expert Aikawa and others.
Japan has long accumulated experiences and achievements in supporting the African agriculture-forestry-fisheries sector and rural development. The advocated support is designed to boost the potential of agriculture-forestry-fisheries operations as business operations for earning cash. Japanese agriculture-forestry-fisheries experts and entrepreneurs are expected to cooperate in this support.
In this section, in cooperation with Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, JICA and international organizations, we will introduce specific cases for business models of “profitable agriculture-forestry-fisheries operations” including ODA’s model case of technical cooperation.
