Observation - Agriculture


Our first GO TEAM last July-August was designed to minister in 4 areas. There was a Medical team, an Education team, a Compassionate Ministries team, and a Construction team. HIV/AIDS has been declared as the number 1 problem in Swaziland. There is much starvation happening with more predicted in the near future.

Could we on some group partner with the Swaziland Department of Agriculture to look into a possile solution? Could they try soy beans, which takes less moisture than corn (maize).

The above picture is how many out in the Bush still plow their fields. Some have tractors but there are still many that can not afford them. Some communities have a community tractor.
