WHAT WE LEARNT
There’s no shortage of land space Hence, no need to plant between trees
Farmers become unwilling when they have to pay
Farmers will try out a batch, if we help them start up for free
Potato vines grow extremely easily

OUR LONG-TERM PLANS
Give them the first batch of sweet potatoes vines. And a new source of income, stable cash flow
Help them “upgrade” to higher value crops Like mangoes, pineapples or durian
Money from sale of sweet potatoes as a sustainable income Until the mango, durian or other fruit trees mature
