Overview

About the project

Preparing for a growing number of floods and droughts is clearly a first priority. Planting the right crops and managing them with new digital tools for precision farming are further essential measures for farmers to implement.

To establish climate-resilient operations, farmers in Central America and the Caribbean need access to new tools, seeds and other input materials. And this requires support from governments, multilateral donor organisations, NGOs and the private sector.
