The Government of Paraíba and the Ministry of Agrarian Development and Family Agriculture (MDA) are presenting the new National Land Credit Program (PNCF) and offering training on the program to extension technicians from the Paraibana Research, Rural Extension and Land Regularization Company ( Empaer) and to companies inserting and analyzing Land Credit projects. The training, given by MDA consultants, began this Wednesday morning (8) and runs until Friday (10).
The PNCF enables access to land through financing with subsidized conditions for family farmers who meet the income, assets and other criteria previously defined in the regulations. The PNCF also makes it possible to finance technical assistance and basic investments for structuring the property.
