Key targets will be designed during the programme's inception phase, once activities have been identified. Intended results include: increased sales among farmers and agro-enterprises; increase in the percentage of agricultural produce that has value added; increase in export diversification. The ultimate recipient of support and benefits through this contract will be the poor of Rwanda participating in focus markets. This will be achieved through the provision of support and services to market actors with whom the project will directly partner, or who will benefit from the published market analysis.
