Agricultural Development

Manufahi Agricultural Development Program 2010-2012 (3 years)


This project involved three agricultural development components in the Manufahi District including the construction of irrigation systems, community buildings and facilities for the production of coconut oil, and the construction of fish farms. Timor Aid collaborated with local communities and established 7 community groups who were provided with ongoing support to plan, implement and evaluate the projects. Timor Aid provided support through regular meetings, agricultural training, monitoring, and long term project evaluation. The outcomes from this project so far have included an increase in access to food diversity, improved agricultural methods and increased economic opportunities through diversification of income sources. Timor Aid provided support for the above communities through regular meetings, agricultural training, monitoring, and long term project evaluation.
