Welcome to the JICA SHEP&SSC Project website, a collaborative initiative between the Department of Agriculture of Sri Lanka and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).Our mission is to empower small and medium-scale farmers in Sri Lanka by providing them with the tools and information they need to thrive in today’s market.

Through the JICA Project for Livelihood Enhancement of Small and Medium Scale Agri Producers through Strengthening Supply Chain Structure, we aim to strengthen the agricultural supply chain and enhance the livelihoods of farmers across the country.

This website is designed to offer daily updates on vegetable market prices in Dambulla and Pettah, including both wholesale and retail prices. By providing real-time data on price fluctuations, we help farmers make informed decisions about what to cultivate and when, based on market demand and supply trends.

In addition, our platform offers a wealth of resources, including free vegetable handbooks, educational videos, and reading materials, all aimed at enhancing the knowledge and skills of Sri Lankan farmers. Join us in our mission to build a more resilient and prosperous agricultural sector for all.
