The problem being at hand in Kapelebyong district is that rural farmers are faced with limited access to high-quality agriculture inputs and extension services. This scarcity has contributed to decreased food production and heightened levels of food insecurity. The primary challenge lies in the considerable distances between rural areas and the existing agro service centers located in urban centers and towns.
The solution presented by Rural Agribusiness Developers LTD is addressing the accessibility gap by offering a comprehensive range of agriculture inputs and extension support services directly to rural Kapelebyong. The company aim is to serve the "last mile" farmers, bridging the geographical divide and bringing agriculture inputs, extension services, and assistance closer to them.
