This initiative involves identifying 100 hectares of land, ploughing it, building shelters, installing irrigation systems, and supporting entrepreneurs in acquiring seed inputs. As part of economic diversification, the synergy between scientific research and agricultural development in Congo, and also supporting farmers, the ZAPs could have a sub-regional vocation.<\/p>\n

The program to establish 100 protected agricultural areas began in 2023 and will extend across the entire national territory as part of the 2022-2026 national development plan.<\/p>\n

Four protected agricultural zones have already been opened in the departments of Bouenza, L\u00e9koumou, Plateaux, and Cuvette, for the breeding of small ruminants and the production of staple foods such as cassava, peanuts, corn, and soybeans. Other activities have been carried out to stimulate agricultural production. The cassava and cocoa sectors have been revitalized through, respectively, the introduction of cultivars with high agronomic performance and the distribution of high-yielding cocoa trees.<\/span><\/p>\n

In May 2023, the Mayoumina ZAP had recorded a yield of 111 tonnes of corn on an area of 100 hectares, 58 of which were devoted to corn, the remaining hectares being devoted to cassava and soybeans that had already reached maturity.<\/p>\n

The launch of the first protected agricultural zone in a forest area, the Ketta ZAP in the Mokeko district of Sangha department, took place in 2023. This ZAP covers an area of more than 60 hectares. The 19 groups operating in this first forest ZAP will plant several crops, including corn, bananas, and cassava.<\/p>\n
