Elala Village, Ethiopia
Elala village is one of the Transformational Community Development (TCD) projects going on in Ethiopia, with agriculture as the focus.
Near one of the largest river crossings in Ethiopia, most villagers were engaged in animal husbandry. After we started TCD in this village, we began trying to teach selected villagers to diversify their activity instead of only focusing on one thing.
Because of this, now the villagers understand the benefits of irrigation, crop rotation, and planting a variety of vegetables such as cabbage, carrot, potato, and onion.
Thank you!
