The training programs emphasized the importance of crop rotation, composting, and conservation agriculture, and were tailored to the specific needs of small-scale farmers in the region. The initiative's focus on women-headed households was a deliberate strategy to address the disproportionate impact of poverty and food insecurity on women and girls in Rwanda. The evaluation also highlighted the importance of integrating market access interventions with agricultural training and infrastructure development to achieve sustainable and equitable outcomes. The initiative's success has been attributed to the collaborative approach between USAID, the Rwandan government, and local stakeholders. The program's focus on building capacity and empowering small-scale farmers has helped to create a more resilient and sustainable agricultural sector in Rwanda. The lessons learned from this initiative have the potential to inform agricultural development programs in other countries and contexts.
