Abstract
THE PROGRAM SEEKS TO INCREASE THE PRODUCTIVITY OF THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR OF THE GUATEMALAN ECONOMY BY ENCOURAGING FARMERS TO DIVERSIFY THEIR GRAIN CROPS, BY DEVELOPING HUMAN RESOURCES (E.G., VOCATIONAL SCHOOLS) AND BY AIDING THE FINANCING OF ARTISANRY ACTIVITIES. THE BACKGROUND AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROGRAM, THE TARGET GROUP, REASONS FOR NOT MEETING PROGRAMMED CREDIT INPUT GOALS, AND OUTPUT EVALUATION ARE DISCUSSED. OTHER ANALYSIS PROJECTS FOR CONSIDERATION ARE ALSO SUGGESTED.
