Agricultural and rural development projects and programmes
Development projects and programmes deliver, over a limited period, the public investment and partner funding channelled into value chains and territories.
Definition in the architecture : Coordination units delivering, for a set period and area, the investment and support funded by the State or its partners
What you do
- Target beneficiaries and launch calls for proposals among producers and their organisations
- Co-finance productive sub-projects through matching grants and investment support
- Fund and supervise land development, rural roads and market infrastructure
- Provide extension to producers and build the capacity of cooperatives and groups
- Procure engineering firms, operators and service providers through competitive tendering
- Monitor and evaluate results, then prepare the sustainability of gains at closure
A project or programme receives a mandate from the State and funding, public or provided by a partner, for a defined period and area. It turns these resources into funded sub-projects, infrastructure, training and support for producers. Within the Produce – Process – Export chain, it lowers the risk of first investments, structures producer organisations and links beneficiaries to markets, banks and support services, before handing over to permanent actors.
Where are you found?National coordination units are usually based in Yaoundé, close to their supervising ministries. Regional offices and field units sit in the intervention basins: the Western and North-West highlands, the forest zone of the Centre, South and East, the irrigated valleys and Sudano-Sahelian zone of the North, and the coastal area.
Why your business matters in Cameroon and Central Africa
A large share of agricultural and rural investment in Cameroon flows through projects and programmes, whether national or backed by international cooperation. They fund what the market does not yet fund: first equipment, collective land development, producer organisation, training and advice. Their success depends on the quality of the sub-projects they select and on the ability of beneficiaries to carry on after closure. They are also a major outlet for engineering firms, extension operators and equipment suppliers, and a lever for coordination between administrations, local authorities and value-chain organisations.

What the directory brings to your organisation
Being listed as an institutional partner makes your funding windows, calls for proposals and criteria visible to eligible project holders.
Engaging with XP-NOVA gives you engineering support to prepare and monitor sub-projects, from feasibility to the inspection of works.
The AGROVITA ecosystem connects you with producers, cooperatives, local authorities and value-chain operators, and helps sustain your results.
Your listing in three steps
The directory is not a mere listing: each profile is positioned within the architecture (sub-domain, actor, value chain), checked by XP-NOVA, then published. You keep control of your profile after publication.
- The form
You enter your organisation, your position in the architecture — pre-filled from this page —, your value chains, your area of operation and your contact details. Your profile is created as pending and you receive your access.
Start my registration - Verification by XP-NOVA
The XP-NOVA team reviews your profile: consistency of the position in the architecture, reality of the declared activity, completeness of the information. If there is a reservation, the reason is sent to you and you can complete.
- Validation and publication
Once validated, your profile is published in the directory available to members, under your actor code. You update it from your area: contact details, logo, capacities, description.
