TRIP supports Modern Agriculture

The current economy of Rwanda is based mostly on agriculture and its value chains. The agriculture sector has remained pivotal in improving the livelihoods of Rwandans and sustaining the country’s economy. The agricultural sector currently accounts for 25% of the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

Rwanda’s agriculture sector has enjoyed an annual average growth of 5% over the last fifteen years, while the country’s GDP per capita per year increased from US$ 441 in 2007 to US$1,004 in 2022

Because of its high rate of demography population (2.3% over the last ten years, lands became insufficient for extensive agriculture. Researches show that the mean arable land for households is about ¼ Ha. For this reason, farmers are encouraged to practice Modern and professional and climate resilient farming which gives living and market production. The Comprehensive Food Security and Vulnerability and Nutrition Analysis Survey (CFSVA 2021) revealed that 20.6% of our population faces food insecurity, and although there has been a decrease in stunting rates from 34.9 % in 2018 to 32.4 % in 2021, it remains a concern.
