The main goal of the project is to promote social and economic development in North Lebanon, one of the most deprived regions as indicated in the poverty report, where social and economic indicators show high levels of illiteracy, especially among women, high rates of unemployment beside low incomes and lesser access to services. In spite of many factors that impede agricultural development such as lack of extension services, difficulty to access credits, high costs of production, there are few niches of production with high potential. By strengthening the integrated channel (breeding / dairy products) including downstream and upstream activities and targeting not only breeders but also small-scale industrialists involved in the processing phase, the project aims at improving quality of local productions and increasing competitiveness.
