It is a nationwide sectoral document aiming at facilitating the development of a competitive, diversified, equitable and sustainable agriculture sector, in order to achieve by 2030 the national economic Vision for the agricultural sector of a competitive and diversified sector driven by equitable and sustainable agricultural development. The NAP envisages the achievement of the following objectives (i) promote sustainable increase in agricultural productivity of major crops with comparative advantage; (ii) improve agricultural input and product markets so as to reduce marketing costs of agribusiness, including small-scale farmers and farmer groups; (iii) increase agricultural exports to preferential markets at regional and international levels; (iv) improve access to productive resources and services for small-scale farmers, especially women and young farmers, in outlying areas to enable them to increase production of staple foods, including fruits and vegetables, for own consumption and the surplus for income generation; and (v) strengthen public and private sector institutional capabilities to improve agricultural policy implementation, resource mobilization, agriculture research, technology dissemination, and implementation of regulatory services. In summary, agriculture sector goals are (1) increase the annual growth rate of the real crop GDP; (2) increase the value and growth rate of crop exports; and (3) contribute to reduction of poverty and food insecurity.
