Promoting Export-Quality Horticulture
TechnoServe’s Inhambane province program, supported by Irish Aid, is designed to stimulate inclusive growth of the agricultural economy while enhancing the long-term resilience of the poorest households. The program is growing a network of nucleus and outgrower farmers who are generating income by producing export-quality horticulture crops.
Improving the Seed System
The Kingdom of the Netherlands and TechnoServe have entered into a three-year grant agreement to support the work of small commercial farmers and the Government of Mozambique’s ongoing efforts to reduce poverty. The project will specialize in high-potential crops to improve income and nutrition for three million poor smallholder families that are underserved by the formal seed system.
From the Field: Improving Industries in Mozambique
A farm can change lives at a household level. A business can improve a community. But having a real impact on the lives of significant numbers of families requires change at the industry level.
A Growing Lifeline: Mobile Technologies in Agricultural Development
Smallholder farmers in the developing world face considerable challenges that keep many of them locked in poverty. Mobile technologies have the potential to transform the rural economy facing impoverished small farmers.
From the Field: Going Bananas in Mozambique
Believe it or not, it has been more than two months since I arrived in Maputo. Having made new friends, nailed the key Portuguese phrases, figured out what price to pay for food at the market and acclimatized myself to the train of children running with (or after?) me in the mornings – Mozambique is starting to feel more like home.
Fostering Entrepreneurship in Developing Countries
How can we stimulate entrepreneurship in the developing world? For TechnoServe, this is more than just a theoretical question. We believe that competitive businesses are the key to ending global poverty. And growing such businesses begins with entrepreneurs.
Poultry Promotes Prosperity in Mozambique
TechnoServe works across a value chain to help create and support a thriving domestic poultry industry, transforming the lives of thousands of farmers.
Revitalizing an Island Gem
TechnoServe helps a historic Mozambican island develop a tourism industry plan to bring much-needed jobs and business opportunities for local residents.
