Linking producers in the northern zone of EL salvador to sustainable markets

This cooperative agreement from the United States Agency for International Development El Salvador (USAID - OM) provided $469,023 in funding to Chemonics International, Inc. - doing business as Chemonics to implement a project called "LINKING PRODUCERS IN THE NORTHERN ZONE OF EL SALVADOR TO SUSTAINABLE MARKETS" from November 24, 2010 to September 30, 2012. The goal of the project was likely to connect farmers and other producers in northern El Salvador to sustainable and stable markets for their goods in order to promote economic development and stability through USAID's Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas. The funding was used by Chemonics, an international development consulting firm, to carry out activities over the two-year period that aimed to establish partnerships between producers and buyers, provide training and technical assistance to increase productivity and quality, and help producers meet market demands in an environmentally-sustainable manner.
