NW SELANGOR RURAL DE

closed

The Northwest Selangor Integrated Agricultural Development Project will improve the productivity and incomes of 32,000 smallholder families in northwest Selangor (of whom the overwhelming majority are below the relative proverty line and 65% of whom have incomes below the absolute poverty line), through the provision of improved drainage and irrigation facilities, access roads, training and intensified agricultural supporting services; it will also improve the regional drainage systems with subsequent subsidiary benefits for the region's towns and estates. The major risk associated with the project involves the uncertainties associated with the implementation of the integrated agricultural support services system.
