This manual is part of a series of good practice guides describing the components of the participatory and area-based approach to rural agroenterprise development. The manual lays the groundwork for rural agroenterprise projects by leading service providers through an asset-based analysis of the area where a project takes place, a social profile analysis of the client group(s) and the establishment of an agroenterprise working group. The output of the work from this guide is an action plan. To learn more about this resource and others like it, click here.
