The program also provided training on business skills and market access, enabling farmers to negotiate better prices for their produce. The evaluation also showed that the program had a positive impact on poverty reduction, with 22% of program participants reporting a reduction in poverty levels. The program's success was attributed to the combination of agricultural and market access interventions, which addressed the root causes of poverty and food insecurity in the target communities. The program's impact was also evident in the improved nutritional status of children in the target communities. A survey conducted in 2020 showed that 85% of children in the program areas had access to a balanced diet, compared to 55% in the control areas. The program's success has paved the way for its expansion to other regions in Rwanda, with plans to reach an additional 10,000 farmers by 2025. The program's impact on agricultural development and poverty reduction in Rwanda serves as a model for similar initiatives in other countries.
