Welcome to Unvda Cameroon
In Ndop, the Upper Noun Valley Development Authority (UNVDA) handles rice cultivation, which dates back to the 1960s. It is a government parastatal charged with the supervision of the production and marketing of rice in this area. By 1978, an area of about 800 hectares had already been put under cultivation in Ndop, with an average output of 2-2.3 tones of rice per hectare (Ngwa, 1999). Presently, the surface of land cultivated stands at about 1,877 hectares. During the 1994/95-production year, about 4.985 tones of rice were produced (Ngwa 1999). Although these figures may look insignificant when compared to huge volume of rice production from Asian countries, they nevertheless have significance in Cameroon, which is amongst the chief importers of rice in Sub-Saharan Africa.
