Post-Earthquake Food Security in Saint Marc and Fon Batis

To improve food security and livelihoods for earthquake affected populations in the Saint Marc and Fon Batis areas through the support of productive agricultural cooperatives. 120 farmers were trained in market gardening, management and treatment of seeds and pest management. 6 market gardens were established. Displaced populations, along with members of six existing cooperatives, participated in agricultural and cooperative activities. New methods and techniques to increase production were applied by local farmers, resulting in improved yields, increased incomes and greater food security in Saint Marc and Fon Batis.
