According to the results obtained by the Lao
National Agroecology Program (PRONAE), the
Council of Ministers asked, on the one hand,
to the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry
(MAF) to promote DMC technologies to the
whole of Lao PDR and, on the other hand, that
this approach is registered in the university
and school courses. The national authorities
required from Cirad and AFD a support for the
implementation of a sectoral program in
agroecology.
