The PRAS project aims to lay the foundation for a transition to resilient and commercially viable agroecological farming systems by strengthening capability for agroecological policy, planning and practice in Nepal’s western Provinces (Lumbini, Karnali and Sudur Paschim). The project aims to support the Resilient High Value Agricultural Programme (R-HVAP) funded by IFAD and being implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development (MoALD) for its start-up and delivery through delineating Agroecological clusters and value chains, developing agroecology curricula, enhancing capacity of extension workers and lead farmers, and preparing frameworks for Palika Agroecological Plans (PAPs). In addition, the project will support to prepare Agroecological Plans of three Local governments and support to develop model agroecological villages in those Local governments.
