It was a great honour to have been hosted to a meeting by the Rwandan Minister of State for Agriculture, Hon. Eric Rwigamba at the Rwandan Ministry of Agriculture.
We discussed various areas of interest for both
@sFarmLab
and the Rwandan government, including training ...
Farm & debt
Agriculture is expensive, it is a patient expensive process hence a lot of our forefathers were poor, & it was just enough to survive
A city kid wanting agriculture, it is more expensive as you have to pay for what the rurals get free - land, land preparation etc
Power
As a greenhouse soilless farm, power is one thing we are dependent on for water.
Today, we received our 148 solar panels as we start the journey to have a solar farm mini grid.

2. Solar farm mini grid
