Agriculture and Natural Resources

CARE's Agriculture and Natural Resources Program works to increase the agricultural productivity of farming communities while preserving the surrounding ecosystems. In 2001, CARE operated agriculture and natural resources projects in 42 countries. CARE worked with more than 2.6 million farmers to increase their crop and livestock yields through activities like planting new seed varieties, animal husbandry, home gardening and irrigation.

Every day, CARE works with communities to achieve lasting victories over poverty. Click here to read one of our solutions stories.
