The development objective of the FSRP is to increase preparedness against food insecurity and improve the resilience of food system stakeholders, priority landscapes and value chains in the programme’s target areas in Burkina Faso. The PRSF in Burkina Faso is implemented in 7 regions: (i) Boucle du Mouhoun; (ii) Hauts-Bassins; (iii) Est; (iv) Centre-Est; (v) Nord; (vi) Centre-Ouest; and (vii) Centre-Sud. Given the cross-border nature of these intervention areas, priority is given to actions along trade corridors and in cross-border areas that favour trade, in line with the regional perspective of the PRSF.

The priority sectors taken into account in the implementation of the FSRP in Burkina Faso are: cowpea, maize and market gardening. The FSRP focuses on upstream and downstream segments to increase the supply and quality of agricultural products. It will also add value to sustainable food and nutrition security and should have a tangible positive impact on regional food security and trade.
