Procase Phase II
A story that grows
Procase is an initiative of the Government of the State of Paraíba, linked to the Secretariat of Family Agriculture and Development of the Semi-Arid Region (SEAFDS), aimed at strengthening family farming .
Its first phase was completed in 2020, with significant results in improving income, water security, and production conditions for thousands of rural families.
Now in Phase II , the project is expanding its investments, its audience, and its area of operation to reach and support even more family farmers in Paraíba.

operating throughout the state of Paraíba
Procase will operate throughout the state of Paraíba, through 5 Regional Project Management Units (URGPs) , strategically located in João Pessoa, Campina Grande, Cuité, Patos and Sousa.
Each URGP (Rural Community Unit) will be responsible for serving three rural territories within its area of coverage, ensuring a decentralized approach and closer contact with the communities.
