The rest of the money (US$ 120 million) was disbursed directly to select countries by Development Partners under the East Africa Agricultural Productivity Programme (EAAP), an initiative that was closely coordinated by ASARECA. In Madagascar, ASARECA works mainly with Centre National de Recherche Appliquée au Développement Rural (FOFIFA/CENRADERU) and the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock to jointly address AR4D challenges.
