Abstract
The program's timeframes were divided into three phases, with the first phase spanning from 2018 to 2020, the second phase from 2020 to 2022, and the third phase from 2022 to 2024. Implementation details for the program included the establishment of a network of agricultural extension agents, who provided training and technical support to farmers. The program also invested in the development of irrigation infrastructure, including the construction of canals and the installation of pumps. Additionally, the program facilitated market linkage by establishing relationships with local buyers and providing training on market access and negotiation skills. The program's recommendations for future initiatives include the expansion of the program to other districts in Rwanda, the development of a more comprehensive irrigation system, and the establishment of a more robust market linkage system. The program also recommends the continuation of farmer training programs and the establishment of a more robust monitoring and evaluation system to track progress and identify areas for improvement.
