Happy Thanksgiving to our Canadian followers! #MCCPeace #Thanksgiving #GiveThanks #CanadianThanksgiving Photo: Conservation agriculture training, provided through MCC partner Peace and Development Network (PDN), is helping farmers in Rwanda find steadiness amid the uncertainty that climate change brings. PDN established farmer field schools of 30 farmers and provides each school with a communal practice plot for conservation agriculture. These potatoes (known as “Irish potatoes” in Rwanda to distinguish them from sweet potatoes) were grown at a farmer field school plot in Rwanda’s Kayonza District. All participating farmers can take a set amount of potatoes home after harvest. The remaining potatoes are sold at local markets, with proceeds going toward savings group interest and other farmer field school costs, such as the purchase of seeds or more land.
