Component 2) will provide technical services and investment funds to land owners to expand irrigation schemes, along with secure land tenure and capacity building provided in other components. Component 3) will provide the necessary assistance to develop a competitive rice sub-sector and a diversified agricultural base, targeting rice and horticultural supply chain participants engaged in domestic and export markets. Component 4) will ensure the proper coordination of project activities, the monitoring of activities and evaluation of impacts, and the implementation of the social and environmental safeguards.
