The Fifth Agricultural Credit Project aims to: (i) contribute to growth of agricultural production; (ii) improve the standard of living of about 580,000 farm families; and (iii) create about 78,600 man-years of rural employment. The project will support the achievement of these objectives through: (a) increasing private investments in agriculture; (b) improving access by small farmers to institutional credit; (c) promoting mobilization of domestic savings; and (d) strengthening CNCA's management efficiency and financial situation. The project will finance farm investments through CNCA during the period September 1983 to August 1986, including: (a) investments by small farmers; (b) investments by Agrarian Reform Cooperatives; (c) investments by medium and large farmers; and (d) agro-industry investments. The project will also include improvement of CNCA's physical infrastructure, management information systems and loan monitoring and evaluation, and define a banking strategy and a staff training program.
