Abstract

Comprehensive studies of the agriculture sector and of the credit and savings subsector will also be funded. Local currency generated from fertilizer sales will be used to strengthen village cooperatives and producer groups in the Fleuve and Casamance Regions and to support a new Agriculture Credit Bank, Caisse Nationale de Credit Agricole du Senegal (CNCAS); funds for CNCAS will not be released until results of the credit/savings study confirm need.
