Cart Agri has an ongoing agricultural support project that has already benefited, to date, 160 thousand families and plans to include two million more by the year 2030, according to data consulted by JA Online.
In addition to seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, Cart Agri provides tractors, seeders, dryers, threshing machines and other equipment to rent peasant families with contracts, in order for them to develop agriculture and increase the production levels of corn and other crops.
The almost 160,000 agricultural producers who operate in the family sector, through the Development Program, cultivate more than 90,000 hectares in the provinces of Benguela, Huíla, Huambo, Bié, Cuanza Sul and Malanje.
As part of its Agricultural Development Program, in just over three years, the project already operates in 51 municipalities, 175 communes, with bases in 17 municipalities in six provinces of the country, with plans to expand its presence in Cunene and Cabinda, thus reaching eight provinces.
