The Relaunching Agriculture: Strengthening Agriculture Public Services II Project (RESEPAG II) was designed to strengthen the Ministry of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Rural Development's (MARNDR) capacity to define and implement the National Agriculture Extension Strategy, increase access of small farmers to agriculture extension services and training on animal and plant health in priority regions, and provide financial assistance in the case of an agriculture sector emergency. The project was later expanded to include improving livelihoods in areas affected by Hurricane Matthew. Through various components, including strengthening MARNDR's role, providing support for local agricultural extension and innovation services, and establishing an agriculture risk and emergency response contingent reserve, the project aimed to enhance agricultural productivity, food security, and resilience to shocks in Haiti.
