CORAF and UEMOA make the cotton, maize, livestock and aquaculture sectors more competitive
Published : July 2020
According to a new report, the sectors of cotton, maize, livestock, aquaculture, and poultry in West Africa have become more competitive and yield higher income for smallholder farmers today than they were just a few years ago. With an investment of 1.5 billion CFA francs from the West Africa Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA), CORAF implemented a five-years collaborative research project. The project strengthened the resilience of the beneficiary’s communities and contributed to improving the livelihoods of thousands of people in the UEMOA area.
