ProjectStrengthening Capacity of Smallholder Farmers to Adopt Sustainable Water, Soil and Agronomic Management Practices - GCP/GLO/925/IFA 2025
Also available in:
Water is among the key inputs for crop production, which influences the quantity and quality of production, including the nutrient content and economic value of the crop. With increasing water scarcity, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions, water stress is fast becoming a limiting factor in production and adversely impacting on global food security. Projections, from both the United Nations agencies and others, indicate that water scarcity will be the most important limitation to increased food production over the next few decades, particularly given the current global context of climate change, population growth, and impacts of socioeconomic development such as changes in consumption habits, which will continue to put pressure on water resources. In order to mitigate water problems, developing countries will need to focus on more efficient use of all water sources and on water allocation, to maximize the economic and social returns to limited water resources, and, at the same time, increase the water productivity of all sectors. Against this background, the overall objective of the project was to improve dietary quality and diversity by strengthening the capacity of smallholder farmers to adopt sustainable water, soil and agronomic management practices in five pilot countries: Benin, Egypt, Mozambique, Rwanda and the Niger.
