About the Project
The Afghanistan Value Chains – High Value Crops (AVC-HVC) project is funded by USAID and lead by DAI Global, to whom the Borlaug Institute is contributing as a subcontractor. The AVC-HVC project will work with anchor firms nationwide to reverse market failures, strengthen backward and forward linkages, drive growth, and create jobs for men, women, and youth along the fruit and nuts, high-value horticulture, spices, and medicinal crops value chains. The Project will contribute positive and measurable impacts to the sectors and will ensure that local market actors are involved at every stage of the value chain.
