The aim of the project is to strengthen the capacities of farmers to make production practices more economically, socially, and environmentally sustainable and to establish stable spice supply chains. This will result in improved productivity which is expected to
increase farmers’ income and thereby contribute to improving their livelihoods (expected impact). The project measures will ensure that spice farming remains financially attractive and productive in the longer run. It will also provide assurance for the delivery of food-safe spices and good ecosystem services from which the Indian spice market and farming communities can benefit.
