The majority of Papua New Guineas population lives in rural areas, largely dependent on agriculture for their livelihoods. Coffee and cocoa are the main cash crops, with half of the countrys total workforce involved in their production, processing and sale. Despite its importance, the quality and productivity of Papua New Guineas coffee has been declining, due in large part to a lack of replanting, limited incentives for smallholder farmers, and poor access to markets. The cocoa industry has been experiencing similar issues, in addition to the threat posed by the Cocoa Pod Borer. The Productive Partnerships in Agriculture Project (PPAP) aims to combat these problems in order to improve the livelihoods of smallholder cocoa and coffee producers, and promote rural development and poverty reduction more broadly.
