A recent World Bank review of the agriculture sector in Georgia has identified a critical opportunity to improve the targeting and effectiveness of support to the agriculture sector, especially for smallholder farmers and agribusiness, by addressing deep-seated constraints jointly across two key inputs to the agriculture sector: water and land, and by moving toward a joint and integrated investment approach for the agricultural, water, and land sectors.

Based on the above, the Government of Georgia with the purpose to improve resilient agricultural production in selected project areas; and strengthen national irrigation and land management capacity, has requested financing of $150 million from the World Bank for implementing the Resilient Agriculture, Irrigation and Land (GRAIL) Project.
