BUILDING PRODUCTIVITY CAPACITIES OF AGRICULTURE SMALL SCALE PRODUCERS OF THE COFFEE AND COCOA WITHIN CAMEROON, NIGERIA AND BENIN THROUGH THE IMPROVEMENT OF PHYTOSANITARY PRACTICES Project contribution to other Partners In Cameroon, Benin and Nigeria, cocoa and coffee cultivation is the main activity of farmers who are most poorest. They faced lot of challenges for crops protection notably: choice and management of pesticides. These difficulties leads to poor production and low yield. This project through the analysis of data collected in these countries, has developed a good practice guide that aim to provides small producers the necessary resources to increase their production to through good plant protection practice. It will increase their revenue and consequently their leaving conditions.

BUILDING PRODUCTIVITY CAPACITIES OF AGRICULTURE SMALL SCALE PRODUCERS OF THE COFFEE AND COCOA WITHIN CAMEROON, NIGERIA AND BENIN THROUGH THE IMPROVEMENT OF PHYTOSANITARY PRACTICES Project contribution to COMCEC strategy Building the productive capacities of the poor is one of the expected outcomes from the Cooperation agreement related to the fight against poverty, that falls within the COMCEC Strategy. Therefore, the implementation of the project will effectively Strengthen the relations of : Solidarity : through the sharing of experience and the saying ‘’ to common problems, 1. common solution’’ ; Mobility : as the experts will collect data in the partner countries ; 2. Governance : for the implementation of the developed recommendations. 3. At the end of this training, the findings will also include some recommendations for common policy applicable to several other COMCEC Member States, thus fulfilling once again the relation of solidarity targeted through this project .
