Abstract
Afghan province Logar is one of heavily war-impacted. Article summarizes findings on the current conditions and options for future sustainable agricultural development of the
province. 80% of population is dependent on agriculture or services related to agriculture. Assessments identified main problems of agriculture population: lack of specific
agriculture education, irrigation systems failures and poor linkage of farmers towards markets. Lack of the will and support of local authorities prevents investments into
agricultural activities and consequently reduces interest of traders to connect province into national market.
