Project Spotlight
Fertilizer Africa Response (FAR) Phase 2
The Fertilizer Africa Response (FAR) Phase 2 project represents AFAP’s commitment to scaling sustainable agricultural practices amid climate challenges. Implemented in Mozambique, this initiative focuses on the sustainable diversification and intensification of cereal, legume, and vegetable crop production through the adoption of climate-adapted technologies and best practices.
Key Objectives
Enhance smallholder farmer resilience by introducing drought-resistant seeds, precision fertilizer application, and integrated pest management.
Build capacity among 50,000+ farmers and 500 agro-dealers through hands-on training and demonstration plots.
Strengthen market linkages to ensure access to affordable inputs and off-take agreements for increased incomes.
Partners and Implementation:
Collaborating with USAID, local NGOs, and private input suppliers, FAR Phase 2 operates in high-potential regions such as Manica and Sofala provinces. Launched in 2022, the project has already achieved a 25% average yield increase in pilot areas, contributing to food security and reduced import dependency.
Impact Highlights:
Over 30,000 farmers trained; 10,000 hectares under improved practices; projected economic benefit of $5 million in enhanced farmer revenues by 2025. This project exemplifies AFAP’s market-driven approach to transforming African agriculture.
