Agriculture is the only activity that brings income and food at a household level in some rural community villages in Zambia, Africa. The soil is fertile to support the production of important subsistence and cash crops such as maize, groundnuts, sunflower, sugarcane, bananas, beans, soybeans, rice, cassava, sweet potatoes, cotton, tobacco, etc, various vegetables and fruits. However, climate change has negatively affected crop production. Small-scale farmers in rural community villages of Zambia are facing challenges. Most of the families in these rural areas are vulnerable. They live on less than US$1 per day. They cannot afford to buy farming inputs, machines, and equipment for the cultivation of crops.
Abwenzi Frivillig Forening aims to provide assistance to small-scale farmers in rural areas with resources and innovative farming ideas for successful crop and livestock production activities such as rearing cows, pigs, goats, chickens, and fish.
As Abwenzi Frivillig Forening our focus is fundraising and organizing any possible donations in the form of modern farming machinery, tractors, plows, bicycles, transport, seeds, fertilizer, digging boreholes, financial support, livestock structures, any forms of help to:
- Improve farming working lives for existing and new farmers in order to increase crop productivity.
- Improve food security, poverty alleviation, income generation in rural community development in Zambia, Africa.
We believe this could save time and energy with a great chance of improving, effectiveness in farming.
We as AFF will greatly appreciate all forms of contributions as it will improve and sustain agriculture in Zambia.
