This is a continuation of the previous programme (PEC) that LML implemented. LML provided the core management team responsible for the design of a detailed development plan and its implementation throughout the four countries over the five-year span of the project. LML also provided a wide range of technical expertise covering all the specialist areas that the project required. The main objectives were continuation of support for the fisheries and aquaculture sectors along the Pacific Coast from Peru to Colombia and along the Caribbean/Atlantic coast from Colombia to Venezuela. The particular emphasis of this much larger programme was resource evaluation and environmental aspects, artisanal fisheries development and training at all levels. Developing sustainable management regimes for the fisheries and aquaculture industries of the region (and especially for Peru's huge fishery - potentially the world's largest and of great domestic importance) was of particular importance. This is now being transferred to other projects in the region. The project also helped Colombia develop an institutional basis for fisheries management (there was formerly no responsible structure for its management) and has helped develop some 25 artisanal fisheries communities, some with landings as large as 30,000t/year. This significantly increases food rather than fishmeal use of fish, especially with a view to supplying poor inland communities which was a central objective which is now being achieved.

Landell Mills Ltd was retained to advise the Minister of Agriculture on food security issues under an assistance programme from the UK Government's `Know-How Fund'. As for a number of former States of the USSR, a fundamental problem facing the country was a dependence on imports of grain, dairy products, and sugar. These accounted for 70%, 80% and 95% of consumption respectively and the Government was committed to reducing such dependence. Landell Mills investigated what were the likely costs and benefits of shifting agricultural production towards grain, dairy, and sugar at the expense of traditional export crops. In addition - within the context of an emerging market economy - the Company advised the Ministry on an overall policy framework, institutional arrangements and technologies required to achieve the agree objectives. The technical assistance was provided by one residential economist assisted by short-term specialists from Landell Mills Ltd and Natural Resources Institute, UK
