Agricultural Demonstration Center
Project Leader: Bennett, Gary & Barbara
Project Type: Field Project Ministry Type: Relief & Development World Area: Africa Country: Rwanda Project ID: 6402-909
The majority of people in Rwanda eat only one meal a day. The goal of this project is to introduce people to new ideas of growing and producing food. Meeting this goal begins with an agricultural demonstration area where research can be done to develop and display new techniques for maximizing yield in minimized spaces. The New Creation Training Center will host this program and share it with a number of pastors and church leaders who train at the center. These leaders in the church can then take the ideas to their villages through Rwanda, reproducing what they have learned about food production. Produce from this project will be used to feed the students while they attend classes at the center. A portion of the seeds and offspring of the animals will be given to graduates to take home and share the ideas in their villages.
