South Sudan is taking a significant step towards strengthening its agricultural sector with the launch of the South Sudan Agriculture Development Programme. The initiative aims to boost food production, improve livelihoods and build resilience among farmers in a country where agriculture remains a critical pillar of economic recovery and food security.

The programme is expected to support smallholder farmers, strengthen agricultural value chains, and address challenges such as climate shocks, low productivity and limited infrastructure. It also seeks to improve rural incomes and create opportunities for sustainable economic growth in communities that depend heavily on agriculture.
