Helmand and Arghandab Valley Authority
The Helmand and Arghandab Valley Authority (HAVA) based in Lashkar Gah, Afghanistan, originally named the Helmand Valley Authority (HVA) until its expansion in 1965,[1] was established on December 4, 1952, as an agency of the Afghan Government.[2] The agency was modeled on the Tennessee Valley Authority in the United States,[3][4][5] with a remit covering lands in the provinces of Farah, Ghazni, Helmand, Herat, and Kandahar.[2]
The HAVA is overseen by the Afghan Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock (previously the Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation).[6]
