Colombia-Dairy

completed

IFC, the client, and key stakeholders are joining forces to improve the low productivity of dairy producers in the Orinoquía region while introducing climate-smart agriculture practices into the dairy supply chain. To do this, the project will develop and execute a comprehensive strategy that encompasses the following approaches: • Sensible business models compatible to the needs of dairy farmers in the region; • Capacity building to strengthen the skills of dairy producers and extensionist agents; • Introduction of innovative agricultural practices that respond to the challenges of increasing climate volatility in the region; • Access to input/logistic finance for small and medium scale dairy producers. A key aspect of the project is to share gained knowledge with stakeholders in the private and public sector as the project moves forward.
