As we remember the victims of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, let us support each other this week. Let us find new ways to console and renew. #Kwibuka26

We are happy to inform you that Volta Irrigation is rebranding to Nilefarms. Nilefarms is a name inspired by the longest river in Africa. The Nile river serves as a source of life to millions across 9 African countries, including Rwanda. More details will be communicated shortly.

The future of #foodsecurity in #Rwanda depends on producing more crops with the same amount of resources on #smallholder farms. A key component of the government’s solution is to double the amount of #irrigated land. Read more about our team's recent trip: dwfi.us/Pssr30nWHWy

We're researching business models for #irrigation on #smallholder farms in #Rwanda by meeting with the farmers themselves and the people who work with them. Great insight into the trials and successes of these local farms. #africa #globalnebraska #ag #agpolicy #water4food

Through our work at Volta, we have discovered some basic principles that reduce the risk of lending to smhldr farmers, while increasing the income impact that those farmers realise from their loans. We currently serve 64 farmers in Rwanda, and have a repayment rate of 98 percent. teapaw.org/voltairrigation/status…
