Rehabilitation of economic infrastructure
Rehabilitation of Physical Markets
The markets to be built or rehabilitated were pre-identified by involving stakeholders and authorities from different provinces as follows
PROVINCES TABLE
Each market is the subject of a feasibility study in interaction with the market's interprofessional consultation framework (CCI) and local authorities. The area to be devoted to market infrastructure depends on the estimated volume of transactions and possible expansion.
The chosen site has road access, both towards the production areas to ensure supply and towards urban markets to facilitate flow by heavy-duty vehicles, particularly towards Kinshasa.
The CMs house commercial transactions of less than 20,000 tonnes per year with seasonal peaks of 500 tonnes per market and will aim to facilitate: (i) the collection and packaging of agricultural products from production areas to the SWM; (ii) the efficient supply of inputs and phytosanitary products; (iii) the storage of agricultural products. These CM are identified at the heart of the production basins on the basis of the volumes of agricultural products supplying the SWM at the rate of two satellite MCs per SWM. The selection is made on the basis of a characterization of the CM classified according to their contribution to the supply of the SWM.
Section 2.1.1
River ports
The Project rehabilitates 15 river ports facilitating port logistics, temporary storage, and the development of accesses thus promoting the docking of boats unloading and/or loading agricultural products from production basins (SC 1.2). These developed ports will be linked to the services provided on the collection and semi-wholesale markets of which they will be an extension and which will ensure their delegated management (SC 2.2).
Section 2.1.2
Rural access roads to markets
The Project contributes to the opening up of agricultural production basins by rehabilitating approximately 670 km of sections of agricultural access roads and sections of provincial dirt roads linking one or more production basins to the market and integrating the construction/rehabilitation of crossing and sanitation structures. The defective sections are selected on the basis of: (i) the degree of contribution to the opening up of production basins and markets; (ii) links with the national main and secondary road network.
