Abstract
The program's impact on rural poverty was also notable, with a 15% reduction in poverty rates among participating households. The program's success can be attributed to its focus on community-led initiatives and participatory approaches. By empowering local farmers and local organizations, the program fostered a sense of ownership and cooperation. This, in turn, led to more effective implementation and better outcomes. The program's achievements have set a precedent for future agricultural development initiatives in Rwanda, highlighting the importance of community-led approaches and sustainable agriculture practices.
