Descripción
The Partnership Initiative for Sustainable Land Management (PISLM) has contracted IICA to support the implementation of the project entitled "Sustainable Land Management in the Commonwealth of Dominica; Strengthening the Resilience of Agricultural Land and Forests in Dominica", through a letter of agreement, for which IICA will be responsible for managing the implementation of the activities set out in the letter and delivering the corresponding outputs. This project seeks to strengthen market methodologies that support sustainable agriculture and also increase the knowledge of farmers and technicians in different agricultural technological capabilities, through certifications such as Dominica's Good Agriculture Practices (DOMGAP).
Objetivo General:
To increase the number of farmers utilising sustainable land management mechanisms in agriculture, improved food safety, and production quality leading to farm certification and improved market access respectively.
Objetivos Específicos:
  1. Improve the DOMGAP certification potential of selected farms by means of gap assessment and provision of requisite support to satisfy established certification criteria
  2. Increase the capacity of farmers, the Division of Agriculture and the Ministry off Agriculture through mechanisms that facilitate knowledge transfer on SLM practices beyond the life of the project
  3. increase the efficiency and use of SLM practices in Agriculture by incorporation of the HNVI criteria into existing SLM models adopted by the MOA to generate the information required for monitoring the transition to sustainable agriculture
