AFD-ENPARD Programme for access to agricultural finance for small scale semi-commercial farms and cooperatives FinExCoop Georgia
Təsvir
Finance, Extension and Cooperative Development for Georgian Farmers (FinExCoop Georgia) is a 4-year project which is part of the ENPARD Programme. The project aims at improving access to finance and agricultural extension services for small farms and cooperatives in Georgia. It provides Georgian farmers and cooperatives with on-field capacity-building, thus increasing their creditworthiness and financial inclusion in the long run.
Moreover, the project also provides technical assistance to local financial institutions that are willing to increase their financing to small-scale farms and cooperatives with innovative agri-finance delivery models and products. Lastly, the project contributes to the policy dialogue on the agricultural sector and particularly on agricultural finance in the country.
