Nuts and Fruits in Hilly Areas Project

The project will increase agricultural income of approximately 40,000 farm households in 100 municipalities in hilly areas of five provinces: Province 1, Bagmati, Gandaki, Karnali and Sudurpashchim. This will be mainly achieved through the development of approximately 10,000 hectares (ha) of climate resilient fruit and nut orchards providing value-addition to the nuts and fruits produced by at least 30,000 farm households. The project will also improve the institutional capacity for managing the nursery and horticulture sector. For about 10,000 smallholder households, who are not capable of investing in fruit and nut orchard development in the project provinces, the project will assist them to improve their vegetable and other nutritious crop production and its marketing.
