The Ministry of Agriculture, Natural Resources and Rural Development (MARNDR) reports that, with the support of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), it has distributed seeds and agricultural materials to nearly 4,200 producers in several municipalities in the South department. These interventions specifically concern Camp-Perrin, Cavaillon, Chardonnières, Torbeck, Port-à-Piment, and Tiburon.
