On May 3, the Armenian government made the decision to end Millennium
Challenge Armenia. The development project began in 2006 and was
nearly complete by 2011. According to initial plans, $235 million USD
was to be allotted to the agricultural sector, but only $177 million
was received. The money was used to rehabilitate irrigation systems,
pumping stations, and similar infrastructure.
