Did you know the median landholding in Rwanda is 0.2 hectares? We need these climate smart AND regenerative solutions to increase productivity and restore our soils 🌾

[Simeon Ehui @simeonehui]

Around 250 million small-scale African farmers, who operate on plots smaller than one hectare, play a crucial role in sustaining the continent's food supply by producing approximately 70 percent of it. https://t.co/noQnIOqEdc via @WBG_Agriculture @IITA_CGIAR @CGIAR
