    Hi Team,

    I'm glad to find myself in this great platform of advisory services. I will really learn a lot from you guys, even though Rwanda is trying their best to improve this sector but some work need to be made. The status of my Country is that Agriculture is the backbone of the economy, it accounts for 39 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), 80 percent of employment, 63 percent of foreign exchange earnings, and 90 percent of the country’s food needs. The sector is challenged by land constraints due to population pressure, poor water management, small average land holdings, lack of public and private capacity, and limited commercialization constrained by poor access to output and financial markets. The country’s average annual income of $550 per capita reflects a rural poverty rate of 49 percent, a figure that soars to 76 percent for families whose main source of income is agriculture.
