Today, the farm produces better quality tomatoes, green beans, amaranths and chilli peppers in larger quantities.
“The chilli we produce now are really beautiful and very different from the ones we harvested before we had solar power,” said Mukabatesi, one of the female farmers.
The chilli is now being exported to China, increasing the farmers’ income. This allows them to cover their children’s school fees, buy daily necessities, and purchase items they could not even imagine having before, like televisions.
