We recognize the importance of tertiary roads for the flow of production, but, for the country to be able to visualize the importance of infrastructure, producers must have something to sell.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, Darcia Nhancale, said in her intervention that the joint work between the Mozambican government and AGRA had made it possible to identify constraints impeding the development of agriculture, hence the greater clarity in the areas of intervention.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe identified the following areas: institutional strengthening and reform of our agrarian policies,\u201d Nhancale said.<\/p>\n<p>AGRA supports around 800,000 producers in Mozambique, and has invested over US$16 million over the last five years, corresponding to more than one billion meticais at current exchange rates.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
