Botswana gets P42m agric loan

Mmegi: "With the low level of productivity, agricultural production in Botswana is highly subsidised by the government," the statement noted.

"The project will contribute to improved food security and livelihoods in rural communities and decrease reliance on subsidies to promote farming as a viable business." The signing of this project marks a renewed collaboration between IFAD and the government of Botswana, which is providing approximately $19 million, after a 16-year hiatus.
