Asociacion De Productores Agropecuarios De La Frontera, Inc.

Asociacion De Productores Agropecuarios De La Frontera, Inc., doing business as Agrofrontera, is an international non-profit organization and community development corporation registered to receive federal grant awards from the U.S. government. Based in the Dominican Republic, Agrofrontera specializes in environmental conservation, sustainable agriculture, and community development initiatives in coastal regions of the Dominican Republic and Haiti. The organization has been registered in SAM.gov since September 2019 and has established itself as a recipient of both prime federal grant awards and sub-awards. Agrofrontera's expertise lies in marine ecosystem management, participatory planning, and fostering cross-border collaboration on issues related to fisheries, watersheds, and protected areas.

Through its federal grant awards, Agrofrontera has undertaken diverse projects that demonstrate its commitment to sustainable development and environmental conservation. A notable prime award from the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Dominican Republic designated Agrofrontera as a backbone organization to lead the implementation of systems mapping processes in Montecristi. This project involved organizing stakeholder workshops, developing system maps, and managing a local collaborative action network focused on binational coordination, fisheries, and watersheds. Additionally, Agrofrontera received a sub-award from Counterpart International, Inc. to improve marine ecosystem management and conservation on the northern coasts of Haiti and the Dominican Republic. This sub-award aimed to implement participatory and adaptive management provisions in protected area management plans, foster cross-border collaboration on local governance of marine protected areas, and disseminate best practices in fishing, farming systems, and ecotourism. Most recently, Agrofrontera was awarded a cooperative agreement by a civilian federal agency for a Dominican Republic mangrove assessment, further demonstrating its expertise in coastal and marine environmental projects. These awards highlight Agrofrontera's capacity to work on complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives that address critical environmental and developmental challenges in the Caribbean region.
