Côte d’Ivoire has mobilized CFA62 billion to finance the implementation and vulgarization of its rural land law. This was told Agence ivoirienne de presse (AIP) by the minister of agriculture and rural development, Coulibaly Sangafowa Mamadou (photo).

“This sum of CFA62 billion regroups budget aid from the European Union, knowingly CFA37 billion, and CFA25 billion from the World Bank, which will be used to implement the law on rural land,” the press agency added.

This announcement falls in line with the government’s initiative launched in 2016 to improve land tenure in the country and also the management of agricultural lands, by leveraging on sensitization campaigns that will be carried out all over the territory.
