7 2 Outline of the Coalition for African Rice Development (CARD) Goal of the Initiative Double rice harvest within 1 years from the present production of 14 million tons to 28 million tons Approaches classified by agro-ecology Irrigated Field Rehabilitation of Existing Irrigation Facilities, Strengthening of Water User s Association Rainfed Lowland Establishment of Rice Development Model Rainfed Upland Expanding of NERICA Dissemination Cameroon, Ghana, Guinea, Kenya, Madagascar, Mali, Mozambique, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Uganda 1 st Group of countries for intervention Implementation Framework AfDB, AGRA, FAO, FARA, IFAD, IRRI, JICA, JIRCAS, NEPAD, WARDA, WB IWMI, UNDP, USAID, WFP, etc Steering Committee Supporting Partners

8 Approaches of CARD» Approach by Agro-Ecology CARD will promote rice farming according to three agroecological zones; irrigated field, rain-fed lowland and rain-fed upland» Value Chain Approach CARD will promote the development of a rice value-chain, including post-harvest processing, marketing and trading» Capacity Development Approach CARD will promote and support training for researchers, extension officers and key farmers engaged in rice cultivation» South-South Cooperation Approach CARD will seek to utilize the know-how of Asian and other rice producing countries

9 Countries of CARD activities 1 st Group Cameroon, Ghana, Guinea, Kenya, Madagascar, Mali, Mozambique, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Tanzania and Uganda 2 nd Group Benin, Burkina Faso, CAR, Côte d Ivoire, DR Congo, Liberia, Rwanda, The Gambia and Togo
