The “Chede Agricultural Development Project” was launched in 1986 by the Muambong rural community in the Bakossi region of Cameroon’s South West Province in response to the severe economic crisis that hit Cameroon and other African countries in the mid-eighties.
The project has since evolved into a self-financed community development venture seeking to improve food production standards and techniques, reduce post-harvest losses, and diversify into commercial agriculture, including the production of fresh fruit and vegetable.

Our village-centric (or “village-first”) development approach aims to level the disparities between Cameroon’s urban centers and villages by focusing attention and development services on the needs of the village population. We provide training and advice to rural farmers, assistance with upgrading farm technologies, food processing, and local, regional and export marketing support.
