Building Agribusiness Capacity in East Timor (BACET) directly contributes to USAID/Timor-Leste’s agriculture and workforce development strategies for economic growth. Though categorized as a capacity building and workforce development activity, many of the key activities of BACET have included infrastructure improvements, which are longer-term in nature. Similarly, teacher training and changed teaching methods have long-term impact.

The USAID Building Agribusiness Capacity in East Timor (BACET) program was extended for three additional years in September 2008. Land O’Lakes gathered feedback from the Ministry of Agriculture, USAID, teachers and students and immediately initiated enhancements to improve the curriculum previously developed to reinforce practical and market-oriented skills.
The Building Agribusiness Capacity in East Timor (BACET) project is designed to create a sustainable educational training program that will produce 150 entry-level agricultural extension specialists, agribusiness managers and/or entrepreneurs.
The issue of regional differences in development has moved to the center of the development debate in Sri Lanka, partly after the release of regional poverty data. For the past many years, there have been significant and increasing differences between the Western province and the rest of the country in terms of per capita income levels, growth rates of per capita income, poverty rates, and the structure of provincial economies. The structure of the report is as follows: chapter two looks at the poverty/growth/agriculture nexus in the poorest regions of Sri Lanka.
This review's objectives were to examine the structure and performance of the agricultural research and extension systems (public and private) at the central and provincial levels, identify successes as well as constraints to improving the system s effectiveness for fostering innovation, and propose options for further policy and institutional development, drawing on lessons from international experience. The review focused principally on nonplantation crops, although its main recommendations apply across the agricultural sector.
Esta Política de Estado se sustenta en cuatro ejes temáticos, que hemos convenido en llamar los pilares de la política: a) competitividad; b) innovación y desarrollo tecnológico; c) gestión de los territorios rurales y agricultura familiar; y d) cambio climático y gestión agroambiental. Se adiciona un eje transversal, que indica los principales alineamientos institucionales que se implementarán para hacerla realidad.
Este informe inicia con un análisis de sector agropecuario hondureño y la revisión sobre el marco legal e institucional que rige al sector agrícola. Luego, se analiza por separado cada uno de los cuatro rubros de producción (café, cacao, ganadería y granos básicos) en cuanto a políticas, leyes e institucionalidad propia en los sectores priorizados por el MAP II (Programa Agroambiental Mesoamericano II).
