NGO in cassava multiplication drive

KAYONZA-Cassava farmers in the Eastern Province are set to receive improved varieties of cassava cuttings from Rwanda Rural Rehabilitation Initiative (RWARRI). The local NGO, on Thursday, trained at least 100 agricultural officers to facilitate the rapid multiplication of the plant from demonstration gardens established in Kayonza and Rwamagana districts. Belange Uwineza, the Program Coordinator at RWARRI, said that an effective multiplication and distribution plan has been developed to allow the most suitable variety to be grown.
