Targeting 1,500 beneficiaries, the project is strengthening the rice value chain in the two breadbasket counties; Bong and Lofa. “I am extremely honored to be a beneficiary of support provided by FAO,” said Paliwoe. “As you can see, all the technical and financial support provided by FAO is what the farmers have shown through their first harvest,” he noted. I will encourage you to make relevant use of all the support provided by FAO,” said Fofana. At the same time, FAO and partners will be facilitating the installation of agro-machinery and construction of post-harvest technology centers.
