- Strengthening further logistical capacities (transport and storage systems), and market finding via the establishment of Market Information Systems as well as the overall regulation of the commodity chains in cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA),
- Around the LUSIP area, completion of land development and establishment of Farmer Companies on the land earmarked for non-sugar crop.
- Developing ‘packhouse hubs’ in several areas characterised by water seasonality with a potential to develop the localised production around existing smaller water harvesting structures.
The project operations are nationwide. For objective 2 of the project operations are centred around the LUSIP I area in the Lubombo region. For objective 3, the project will concentrate largely on areas identified as pack-house hubs. These are located at Lavumisa, Msahweni, Nhlangano and Mphumakudze.
