In June 2026, MIDAGRI and FONDOEMPLEO signed a financing agreement for the project Strengthening Agribusiness Associativity of Organized Family-Farming Producers in 14 Departments of Peru for Improved Market Access. The intervention will directly benefit 8,947 producers belonging to 154 local family-farming organizations and indirectly benefit more than 30,000 members of rural households. The project has a 36-month implementation period and covers 54 provinces and 102 districts in Amazonas, Áncash, Arequipa, Ayacucho, Cajamarca, Cusco, Ica, Junín, Lima, Loreto, Madre de Dios, Piura, Puno and San Martín. Priority value chains include fruit, dairy products, Andean grains, pulses, cocoa, forest products, small livestock, tubers, legumes and South American camelids. Its main components are organizational strengthening, sustainable productivity through specialized technical assistance, commercial linkage with formal markets and financial inclusion through training and education. SENASA, INIA, SERFOR, AGROMERCADO and AGROIDEAS will participate through coordinated technical, commercial and financial services.
