Reforms have been necessary each time to enable the agricultural sector to support the economic and social development of our country.
In order to make our country emerge, a program to revitalize and modernize the agricultural sector is set up.
The NAIP is the agricultural sector stimulus program. It revolves around four strategic objectives that are:
- Food security and sovereignty;
- Sustainable management of cash and export crops;
- Private sector engagement through increased investment;
- Agricultural governance in terms of agricultural sector reforms, restructuring of agricultural professional organizations and the implementation of the law on rural land.
OBJECTIVES OF NAIP
The NAIP aims to:
- Revive agricultural growth at a rate of 9% per year with, in particular:
- an annual growth rate for food crops estimated at 6.8%;
- an annual growth rate for cash crops set at 7.6%;
- an annual growth rate for animal resources set at 3%;
- a forest cover rate set at 20%.
- Contribute to the reduction of poverty;
- Create 2,400,000 jobs over the five-year period of implementation of the NAIP;
- reduce food insecurity with the aim of lifting 6 to 7 million people out of food insecurity;

The PNIA is estimated at 2,040 billion CFA francs in 2012-2016 with:
