Cameroon - Livestock and Fish Farming Value Chains Development Project (PD-CVEP)

About this project

The present intervention relates to the Livestock and Fish Farming Value Chains Development Project (PDCVEP). It’s designed because of the Cameroon Government’s desire to make the livestock and fisheries sub-sector participate actively in the quest for economic growth capable of generating jobs and significant incomes in rural communities. Initially, this operation was to be a component of the Agriculture Value Chains Programme (PDCVA). However, it was agreed to separate PD-CVEP from PD-CVA, due to the principle of institutional anchoring of programmes and projects. Therefore, PD-CVEP will focus on segments that hinder the proper operation of these three value chains and limit their competitiveness, namely: (i) genetic improvement; (ii) feeding/fattening; (iii) slaughter and conservation; (iv) transportation, processing and distribution of meat; and (v) the rearing, conservation, storage and processing of fish. This project, which will span five years and cost EUR 99.27 million (including EUR 84 million from the AfDB), addresses the need to modernise the production machinery, helping to ensure the population’s food and nutritional security and the profitability of cattle, pig and fish farms. The project has three (03) main components, namely: (1) development of the infrastructure necessary for the upgrading of the commodity chains; (2) capacity building of the actors of the three commodity chains; and (3) coordination and management of the project.
