The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is investing $2 million in sustainable agricultural development practices to decrease the risk of flooding in Haiti's Port-au-Prince, St. Marc, and Northern development corridors and to bolster the climate resilience of these communities. USAID will rehabilitate drainage and irrigation canals and rehabilitate rivers to slow water runoff and promote greater infiltration and better water availability for crop production. USAID will also help farmers transition from planting corn and beans to perennial tree crops such as mango, cacao, and coffee, which are more resilient to climate change and reduce soil erosion. This investment will increase the resilience of vulnerable communities to extreme weather events, which are projected to intensify due to climate change.
