Somalia - Central Rangelands Research and Development Project : Phase II
Fox, M. Louise
The Second Phase of the Central Rangelands Research and Development Project, estimated at US$33.3 million, is designed to maintain and improve the long-term productivity of the Central Rangelands, and raise the living standards of pastoralists. To that end, the project includes (i) systems investigation and monitoring; and (ii) extension to disseminate improved technology, organize Range and Livestock Associations (RLAs) and support village development initiatives. It further includes (iii) agropastoral adaptive trials and forestry programs; (iv) animal health and livestock production; and (v) water and infrastructure development. Lastly, the project provides for (vi) conservation to protect key flora and fauna in the project area and the Northern Rangelands; (vii) training to provide continued support to the University and short-term and medium-term training opportunities overseas; and (viii) project management to manage project and National Range Agency (NRA) activities in the region. The main benefits of the project will derive from the reduced degradation of the rangelands.
