AATF provides free agricultural technologies, inputs and materials to smallholder farmers as well as the necessary training to help them to increase their farm production and income. For example, AATF embarked on a project to modernize cassava production by purchasing cassava machines and delivering them to smallholder farmers with the sole aim of enhancing productivity. http://aatf-africa.org/ |
