    Armenia : Community Agricultural Resource Management and Competitiveness Project


    The development objective of the Community Agricultural Resource
    Management and Competitiveness Project for Armenia is to improve
    productivity and sustainability of pasture/livestock livelihood
    systems in selected communities. There are four components to the
    project. The first component of the project is community
    Pasture/Livestock Management System.

    This component aims to introduce efficient and sustainable
    community-managed pasture/fodder-based livestock production systems in
    selected mountainous communities, where livestock is the main source
    of livelihood and communities express a strong interest in improving
    their pasture production, through support for the development of
    pasture/livestock management plans and a community fund for the
    implementation of these plans. The second component of the project is
    strengthening support services. This component aims to increase
    livestock productivity and pasture health by improving the supporting
    services for farmers involved in livestock production. This will be
    achieved by providing support to: (a) improve agricultural advisory
    services in livestock-related topics; and (b) improve community animal
    health services. The third component of the project is competitive
    grants program. This component aims to increase sales from livestock
    and natural resources through support to village-level agri-business
    and farmer groups to develop new business opportunities, improve
    marketing, promote food safety practices, and introduce and
    demonstrate new technologies that could benefit communities focused on
    livestock production. The fourth component of the project is project
    management and monitoring and evaluation. The project will be managed
    by the same Project Implementation Unit (PIU) that was implementing
    the Rural Enterprise and Small Scale Commercial Agriculture
    Development (RESCAD) and the Avian Influenza Preparedness (AIP)
    projects. This component will finance: (a) project management and
    training, including annual operational reviews and audits; and (b)
    monitoring and evaluation (M&E).
