According to the Secretary of State for Planning, Milton Reis, the provincial governments are working together with PRODESI to choose the producers who will receive this funding. The official, who was speaking at the end of the visit to the Angonabeiro coffee factory, also indicated that cooperatives will be helped in each of the country's 18 provinces.
Cited by Angop, Milton Reis considered that the funding will help boost the growth of national coffee production, which is currently done only by small farmers.
The Secretary of State for Planning also made it known that Angonabeiro is one of PRODESI's priorities, so that it is possible to exchange coffee imports for exports.
According to the governor, Angonabeiro is already exporting Ginga coffee and green coffee, exporting almost 50 percent of the country's total.
Six tons of coffee are being produced per day, he said, considering that this quantity is "low" and recognizing that there is room for maneuver to increase coffee production in Angola.
