Agriculture is a key sector for the development of Burundi. It employs 90% of the active population and covers 95% of the country's food needs. However, weak productivity, parcelled-out farming land, poor water management and product processing and preservation problems are structurally limiting agricultural growth.
Here, we provide continuous and comprehensive support to the development of the agricultural sector: hydro-agricultural works on approximately 4,000 hectares of land, support to water users, protection of the watersheds, coaching of farmers' organisations and seed producers, processing and added-value creation of production by means of support to agricultural micro enterprises and agricultural research.
