Rosine Mukeshimana's Eagle Farm1 Ltd: Modern Poultry and Pig Farming for Community Development in Gicumbi
In July 2023, Rosine Mukeshimana launched Eagle Farm1 Ltd in Gicumbi District, Rutare Sector, Nkoto Cell, Nyagatoma Village. This farm, specializing in modern poultry and pig farming, was founded to uplift the local community’s welfare by creating economic opportunities, combating malnutrition, and supporting local agriculture.
Rosine entered the farming sector to tackle various issues that challenge her community. By establishing Eagle Farm1 Ltd, she addresses some of the most pressing challenges, including unemployment, economic sustainability, and nutritional health. Here’s how her initiative is making a difference:
Job Creation and Economic Self-Sufficiency
Eagle Farm1 Ltd not only provides high-quality poultry and pork products but also creates job opportunities for youth in the local area. Through this business, Rosine is helping to reduce unemployment and build economic resilience by empowering young people to participate in productive work. Her initiative supports job creation in agriculture, especially crucial in rural communities where formal employment opportunities can be limited.
Promoting Nutritional Health and Fighting Malnutrition
In a region where access to nutritious food can be challenging, Eagle Farm1 Ltd contributes affordable, nutrient-rich meat products that are easily accessible to the community. By making these products available, Rosine is helping to fight malnutrition, offering protein sources essential for growth and development. Both poultry meat and eggs provide valuable nutrients, helping improve dietary options for families in her community.
Enhancing Agricultural Productivity through Organic Fertilizer
Eagle Farm1 Ltd generates organic fertilizer, which it provides to local farmers to boost crop yields. This approach supports sustainable agriculture by recycling nutrients within the community and enhancing soil health. Access to quality organic fertilizer helps farmers increase their productivity, contributing to improved food security and sustainability in the Gicumbi District.
Strengthening Local Markets and Expanding Meat Supply
Eagle Farm1 Ltd aims to boost the supply of poultry and pork to meet local demand for affordable, quality meat products. This expansion will stabilize market availability, providing a reliable protein source for the community. By growing operations, the farm will enhance local economic activity and create a steady supply chain for both local consumption and trade.
An example of agricultural entrepreneurship with a social aim is Eagle Farm1 Ltd, owned by Rosine Rosine. She is contributing to the advancement of rural development in Gicumbi by creating jobs, improving nutrition, and supporting local markets. Her work serves as an inspiration for others to combine corporate success with societal benefit, demonstrating how modern farming can improve communities. RYAF Communication Team
