(Business in Cameroon) - The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development in collaboration with the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) will launch a fundraising event on November 27, 2013 at the Sawa Hotel in Bonanjo Douala.

The choice of the economic capital to host the event again, he pointed out, is based on its large size of companies and the city’s contribution of 87 per cent to the annual State budget.

Since its inception in 1997, the TeleFood initiative has enriched the lives of many people in Cameroon. Already, 108 small farms and micro projects for the production of pork, chicken, fish and vegetables, among others, have been financed.
