 Since July 2004, IFDC has been involved
in the PDRSO project, an investment program sponsored by the African
Development Bank, IFAD, and the Government of Burkina Faso. IFDC was
asked to develop ways to intensify agriculture in the region using the
CASE approach. A rapid rural appraisal survey allowed identifying four
pilot villages that have good potential for agricultural
intensification.
Project staff members have been
recruited (one agronomist and one marketing specialist). A project
launching workshop and a training course on the CASE approach were
organized in November 2004. Surveys are now being conducted to determine
the best marketable commodities and entry points for both the NRM and
agri-business pillars of CASE.
