The Central American Dry Corridor faces significant agricultural challenges from prolonged droughts and intense rains. To address this, FAO, the Brazilian government (via ABC/MRE), and the Ministries of Agriculture of Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras are collaborating on a project. This initiative, part of the Brazil-FAO South-South Cooperation Program, focuses on "Agricultural Zoning of Climate Risk (ZARC) and water resource management." Its objective is to develop strategies that build resilience and foster inclusive transformation across the region.
