  • Could a 'FTMA' program improve maize production in Rwanda?
  • In Rwanda, MRR Innovation Lab researchers are connecting maize farmer cooperatives with food processors through the WFP Farm to Market Alliance (FtMA) program to provide a stable market for high-quality maize. This connection to markets could increase farmers¡¯ investments in quality- and productivity-enhancing inputs, and profits.
  • Why is maize a major crop in Rwanda?
  • Subject of the evaluation Maize is the third largest crop in Rwanda and is largely produced by smallholder farmers (SHFs). Access to commercial markets is limited by excessively high levels of aflatoxin levels in their crops due to fungal infections which occur as a result of poor storage in humid conditions.
  • Who is involved in the maize value chain project in Rwanda?
  • The project supports farmer cooperatives involved in the maize value chain across the country. The project partners include Africa Improved Foods (AIF), Agriterra, Sight and Life and the Rwandan Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Resources. This progress report will highlight the summary of activities done during period of June to December 2020.
  • What is EAAE method for oil extraction from maize germ?
  • The EAAE method for oil extraction from maize germ is considered as a good alternative for this purpose being environment-friendly and green technology; also the extracted oil was light yellowish in color and had a pleasant nutty taste.
  • Do biotic and abiotic factors affect maize productivity in Rwanda?
  • In Rwanda, NDVI-based studies integrating biotic, abiotic, and socio-economic factors that affect maize productivity are scanty and deserve focus. This study aimed at determining yield gap and devising appropriate strategies for managing maize yield gaps to ensure food security in Rwanda.
  • Why is the apsim maize model suited to Rwanda?
  • The APSIM maize model is particularly suited to Rwanda, because it has a long history of use in development, testing, and use in East Africa (e.g. Smethurst et al. (2017)). The model was calibrated using data from the experimental control plots.
