Farmers agree to work with financial institutions #Rwanda

A two-day expo aimed at enhancing innovations
in agriculture and enhancing partnerships
between farmers and other stakeholders closed
yesterday in Kayonza District .
The finance fair was organised by Ministry of
Agriculture and Animal Resources (MINAGRI),
Agri-Hub and a number of partners aimed at
boosting the spirit of entrepreneurship in farming.
The event was held under the auspices of Agri-
ProFocus Rwanda, a network of farmers'
organisations, NGOs, financial institutions,
research institutions, private and public sector
actors and other international development
agencies.
The Director General in charge of planning
Minagri, Raphael Rurangwa said that the fair was
a good platform to share major obstacles
regarding farmers' access to financial services
and lack of sufficient knowledge about agricultural
project management.
