A democratic claim The 2017 presidential campaign in France brought once more into the limelight the question of solidarity. One can see this as a tentative noble answer to narrow-mindedness and self-isolation which have so often led to loathsome statements and murderous actions around the world! Solidarity: for us, the French, it’s a democratic claim. It goes hand in hand with the principles of equality and fraternity. We hope solidarity will be at the heart of the policies undertaken by our new President of the Republic, especially in terms of international solidarity. The United Nations have recently launched the Sustainable Development Goals. Does our country remain on the front line towards achieving them? Certainly, France was a responsible coordinator during the climate negotiations in 2015. The Paris agreement has the potential to trigger great steps towards solidarity: by inviting industrialised and emerging countries to limit environmental degradation, it should enable less exposure of the poorest regions in the world to climate change. An essential precondition though is full implementation of the 2015 agreements. We intend to pay special attention to the policies of the French government and its initiatives regarding the environment, energy, agriculture, nutrition and development, in particular at the EU level.

Serious efforts to be made In terms of development, our country still has to make serious efforts. For example, regarding Africa, under no circumstances can we express our satisfaction about the statistical increase in the GNP of certain countries if we don’t take into account poverty in rural areas, which is often worsening due to demographics, climate change, deforestation... Agrisud, as many other social actors, tackles this dramatic reality as honestly and responsibly as we can. We are active on the field, we try and promote the value of solidarity and use all funding coming from the North wisely, in cooperation with local communities and actors.

A call on our politicians We therefore wish to urge our new government: increase the aid France provides up to the consensual level of 0,7%; do not stick to some classic development models, for instance those which only favour large agricultural business projects ; provide firmer support to integrated rural development; promote local farming; boost local activities that create a strong economic fabric, increase sustainable jobs, contain rural depopulation and reduce migration.

teams in action In 2016, our teams and their partners led 40 programs or support missions in 17 countries. Their main goal was to help poor people integrate themselves into the economy. As a result, 4,300 new small farm businesses were created or became stronger.Since 1992, 53,400 VSB have been supported. It is estimated that 85% of them are still active. In the very year 2016, they produced 330,000 tons of food. This, in turn, ensured food safety for agricultural families and local populations. Small farms produced a net income of € 83.2 million and contributed to good nutrition, health and education. What is more, they had a positive impact on the environment by capturing 26,500 tons of carbon. Finally, they represent 188,500 sustainable jobs and have helped 504,000 people escape poverty. Another very important objective for our teams is to strengthen local capacities. Such process is facilitated by special training programs such as learning cycles in agroecology and management consulting for 34 organisations. So far, 471 organisations have benefited from the training programs. Our actions at a regional level confirm our vision and our goals. Acting at a regional level is indeed an effective way of creating dynamic economies, achieving food safety and fighting against poverty. Furthermore, it builds resilience against climate change and socio-economic difficulties and leads to population stability. In order to accomplish our mission, we mobilised 3,8 million euros in 2016 thanks to funding provided by our public and private partners. Once again, we have achieved budgetary balance.

two major events for Agrisud“Agrisud meetings” in October brought together our on-the-field representatives, the Board of Directors, all our managers and our main partners. Those meetings enabled us to share convivial moments, of course, but they also offered the opportunity to have constructive discussions and share information thanks to our partners from the Research sector.

During the COP22 in November in Marrakech, Agrisud reaffirmed its strong involvement in issues related to climate change, agro-ecological transition, food safety and the fight against poverty.

25 years of actionOn November 16th 2016, Agrisud entered its 25th year since its creation.It is therefore a good opportunity for us to take stock of our actions in many countries, evaluate our innovations and expertise, examine our areas of competence and assess the results obtained and their contribution to the Millennium Goals. The report you are about to read is proof of the commitment of our teams, which sometimes have to work under difficult circumstances. It also highlights our ability to adapt and innovate in order to effectively fight against poverty.I extend a warm thank you to all these teams and to those who support their endeavour.

Sustainable enhancement of the farming sector performances (phase 2), ghassate - MoroCCoagroecology and energy complex

Soon after the installation of its Ouarzazate solar energy complex in Ghassate, MASEN sought for Agrisud’s support in order to help build momentum for sustainable economic growth in favour of the local community.

In cooperation with ORMVAO and the Norsys Foundation, pilot actions were launched in mid 2014. Their main goal was the professionalisation of family farms in various zones of Ghassate. The method used encouraged the dissemination of knowledge towards other farms.

Within 2 years, 119 families adopted better practices in vegetable and fruit cultivation as well as in small animal farming. New commercial sectors were explored, revenues increased and business dynamics was created.

The expansion phase started for 350 VSB on November 1st in 2016.

Right at the heart of the Mayombe forest, the rural areas of Lukula and Tshela are adversely affected by deforestation and climate change. As a result, food insecurity and poverty take a toll on local populations.

Given the context, the project launched in 2012 aims to improve food safety and enable better supply of local markets through a sustainable increase in agro-ecological goods and the reinforcement of marketing systems.

2,300 small crop and livestock farms as well as a coffee sector got back on track, thanks to the efforts made.

Promoting agro-ecological practices enables agriculture to flourish and at the same time ensures the protection of productive areas and natural resources.

Forestry, agroforestry and land planning in the itasy region - Mahavotra ii MADAgASCAragroecology and regional development

Located in the uplands near the capital Antananarivo, the agricultural areas of the Itasy region are severely degraded, hit by land erosion and loss of forest areas.

Since 2017, through a decentralised cooperation between the regions of Nouvelle-Aquitaine and Itasy, the actions of Agrisud in the area support local producers as they adapt their practices in an effort to restore the local environment through agroecology.

The new phase, which started in 2016 with the aid of AFD, the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, the A. Schweitzer environmental centre and BNPP, improves practices, develops local services and rehabilitates new agricultural areas.

Furthermore, it helps empower local authorities in their effort to manage land development better. The actions undertaken in the area have positively affected no less than 4,000 producers.12

Fight against the degradation of the Miombo forest, nationale reserve of gilé - MoZAMBiqUeagroecology and fight against deforestation

The Miombo forest close to the National Reserve of Gilé (province of Zambezia) is imminently threatened by slash-and-cut farming. Since 2014, in order to fight against the degradation of the forest, the project intends to bring about sustainable economic and social development in favour of the neighbouring populations. Thanks to an agricultural model based on the practices of agroecology, natural resources are protected and revenue is produced for the local families.

The project enables 8 communities to create their own group for the common management of the area’s natural resources. It also contributes to disseminate practices against deforestation and land degradation, as well as to establish local value-added production sectors.

All development actions take place in close cooperation with the local communities.

enhancement of nutrition for agricultural families in the uplands of oudomxay and Huaphan - LAoSagroecology and nutrition

Laos launched its National Nutrition Plan for populations living in isolated mountainous areas where undernutrition still persists.

It is a complex task that requires action on multiple levels and long-term interventions for effective and sustainable results. Agrisud in collaboration with the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation and the Netherlands Development Organisation (SNV) engages in an innovative and dynamic project by means of an integrated approach that links agriculture with nutrition.

Project ENUFF (Enhancing Nutrition for Upland Farming Families) is implemented in 40 mountainous villages. The agricultural aspect of the project has been taken over by Agrisud. Its goal is to improve agricultural techniques thanks to agroecology, to diversify crops and establish marketing sectors. Access to healthy and adequate food is one of the main factors that improve nutrition in Laos.14

Agro-ecological intensification and Diversification of the family peri-urban agriculture, Siem reap - CAMBoDgeagroecology and touristic development

As tourism flourishes in the city of Siem Reap, thanks to its proximity to the temples of Angkor, so does the demand for fresh products. A large part of this demand is met by importing goods from neighbouring countries, thus excluding small local farmers who find themselves in a precarious situation.

The actions undertaken assist small family farms, they promote the practices of agroecology and improve marketing sectors. As a result, small farmers achieve food self-sufficiency, they have a regular income and contribute to the supply of local markets. Special focus is put on marketing driven by an increasing demand in healthy local products.

Being organised in groups enables small producers to seize financial opportunities they didn’t have in the past.

economic recovery and food safety, port-Salut (phase 1), South Haiti HAïtiagroecology and resilience against climate risks

At the end of September 2016, hurricane Matthew hit Haiti causing extensive damage on its southern part. Serious medium- and long-term food crises ensued as a result.

With the support of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region and Léa Nature, Agrisud and its partner, Gradimirh, provided aid to Port-Salut, Saint-Jean du Sud and Roche-à-Bateau, the three most severely hit communities in Haiti.

The first phase entailed urgency actions in order to meet basic food needs for the afflicted families. Priority was given to the recovery of agricultural activities via the restoration of infrastructures and means of production.

The second phase will permit the recovery of the local economy. Producers will be encouraged to adopt agroecology and agroforestry practices for the better protection and management of the land. Agroecology offers a wide range of solutions which lead to reduced risks. Families become more resilient; they can actively manage their land and their environment and rebuild their lives in their own community.16

The aim of the association is to support and develop an activity test in agriculture.For this purpose, it supports and enables the professional integration of people (some of whom exercised a different profession before they decided to engage in agricultural activities) into environmentally responsible agriculture. The project enables them to test different practices in real-life situations without taking the risk of investing thus allowing them to concentrate on the technical and economic aspects of their activity while they maintain their decision-making ability. The name chosen, “Porte-Greffe” (Graft-Door) conveys the core message of the association: every individual has the opportunity to anchor themselves into a given local context and prosper.Contact: Cécile Bruère - portegreffe33@gmail.com
