This is expected to increase food production thereby eradicating hunger, poverty and also create jobs. We want to continue with with the support in a large scale by at least supporting 1,600 farmers in 2020. We want to introduce machines by buying at least 20 machines which will include Combine Harvesters, Ploughs, Tractors, etc. We want to introduce a rice brand for Sierra Leone produced in Sierra Leone. We also want to do our own farms as an organization. This would help us support more in subsequent years.
