Nepal Agricultural Markets Development Programme (NAMDP)
Semi-commercial small farmers, mostly cultivating less than 1 ha and often from disadvantaged groups, face significant hurdles to participate in agricultural product and input markets, thus failing to tap existing potentials to increase their production, farm income and well-being. Complementary to other Swiss projects, NAMDP will focus on market system development to foster market-led and inclusive growth of commercial agriculture, working with the production and marketing actors.
Nepal Agricultural Markets Development Programme (NAM-DP) will sustainably increase the real income poor and disadvantaged women and men derive from participation in agricultural and interconnected goods, service and labour markets by addressing key constraints in market systems where the poor are present as entrepreneurs, workers and/or consumers. Interventions will focus on improving access to information, access to inputs, access to high-value output markets, and the enabling environment.
