Synopsis (short abstract) Si bien hoy en día alrededor del 10 por ciento de la tierra laborable de Angola está cultivada, la productividad y los rendimientos agrícolas del país son muy bajos. Dado que más de la mitad de los pobres de Angola se encuentra en zonas rurales y de que sus medios de vida dependen casi exclusivamente de la agricultura, era fundamental aumentar la capacidad institucional del sector agrícola, en particular en esferas como el riego, el análisis de políticas y las estadísticas agrícolas. El enfoque elegido por la FAO fue establecer nuevas escuelas de campo para agricultores en las provincias de Bié, Huamboy Malanje, así como impartir capacitación a instructores de maestros en las zonas seleccionadas y desarrollar un plan de estudios para la capacitación. La ayuda técnica y la extensión rural suministradas a través del proyecto se orientaron hacia la organización de los agricultores, el fortalecimiento de los mercados y la adopción de técnicas e innovaciones adecuadas al contexto local, en el intento de impulsar la seguridad alimentaria y nutricional.

    Increasing agricultural production in Angola - UTF/ANG/047/ANG 2017
    Also available in:
    With around 10 percent of Angola’s arable land currently under cultivation, the country’s agricultural productivity and crop yields are extremely low. Given that more than half of Angola’s poor are located in rural areas and depend almost exclusively on agriculture for their livelihood, it was fundamental to boost the agriculture sector’s institutional capacity, in particular in areas such as irrigation, policy analysis and agricultural statistics. FAO was approached with a view to establishing new farmer field schools in the provinces of Bié, Huambo and Malanje, as well as training master trainers in the target areas and establishing training curricula. The technical assistance and rural extension provided by the project was geared towards organizing farmers, strengthening markets and adopting the appropriate techniques and innovations to the local context, in an attempt to boost food and nutrition security.

    Angola’s 1 650 kilometres of coastline support the livelihoods of a significant portion of its population through fisheries and aquaculture. Artisanal and semi industrial fisheries make up more than 80 percent of total fish production; however, the monitoring of these fisheries is not adequate, leading to post harvest losses and limiting the ability of small scale fishing communities to thrive. This project was implemented to provide technical assistance to the Fisheries Sector Support Project (FSSP), which sought to improve fisheries monitoring and landing site management and reduce post harvest losses in Angola. By addressing weaknesses in technical knowledge among the staff of the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (MINAGRIP) and local fishing communities, the project aimed to build the capacities of these beneficiaries to manage Angola’s small scale artisanal fisheries in accordance with the principles of the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries (EAF).

    Augmentation de la production agricole en Angola - UTF/ANG/047/ANG 2017
    Also available in:
    Compte tenu du fait qu’environ 10 pourcent des terres arables en Angola sont actuellement cultivées, la productivité agricole et les rendements agricoles des pays sont extrêmement faibles. Étant donné que plus de la moitié des pauvres en Angola habitent en zones rurales et dépendent presque exclusivement de l’agriculture pour leur subsistance, il était fondamental de renforcer la capacité institutionnelle du secteur agricole, en particulier dans des domaines tels que l’irrigation, l’analyse des politiques et les statistiques agricoles. La FAO a été sollicitée pour établir de nouvelles écoles pratiques d’agriculture dans les provinces de Bié, Huambo et Malanje, pour former des maîtres formateurs dans les zones cibles et pour mettre au point un programme de formation. L’assistance technique et la vulgarisation rurale fournies par le projet visaient à organiser les agriculteurs, à renforcer les marchés et à adopter des techniques et des innovations appropriées au contexte local, dans le b ut de renforcer la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle.
