The agricultural sector, peasants and rural areas in the northern province of Tuyên Quang, the central province of Ninh Thuận and the Central Highlands province of Gia Lai will directly benefit from the non-refundable projects.
The People’s Committees of these three provinces were assigned to directly implement the projects.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development will receive technical support to carry out a project on implementing the National Goal Program on rural development.
A delegation, specializing in negotiating with the FAD on loan agreements and legal documents of the projects, has been set up.
As scheduled, the delegation just holds the first round of negotiation with IFAD on December 8-10, 2010./.
