Why Bong County?

​

​

Bong County is rich in natural resources and has great potential for expansion.The main crops in this area are rice, palm oil, cocoa and cassava. 

​

Women in Bong County make up most of the smallholder farmers in this area.Farming plays a crucial role in the Liberian economy.

 

Unfortunately, the infrastructure that supports women in this sector has suffered greatly due to the long civil war.

​

It is crucial that we empower the smallholder farmers, especially women who make up a majority of this sector.
