Agriculture mechanisation:
Mechanised agriculture is important in Agriculture if Botswana is to return its 1960s status in Agriculture, using agricultural machinery to mechanise the work of agriculture, greatly increases farm worker productivity. There is a need for using the best practices in Agriculture. Investments in this area are open to international funding partners and the Government. Investments will be into Tractors, combine harvesters, harrows and ploughs, irrigation equipment and more
Rural Infrastructure Development:
Rural infrastructure (RI) may be seen as the complex of physical structures or networks within which social and economic activities are carried out. These structures are meant to achieve the broader goals of poverty reduction and economic growth.
The Ark Microfinance believes that rural to urban migration is counter-productive and must be reversed or be minimised and for us to do this, we shall partner with many developments and funding partners to develop modern-day housing, shopping malls, industries, schools and recreational facilities in all rural areas in Botswana. Whatever is found in the cities must also be available in the rural areas including free or affordable internet.
