Founded in 2006, One Acre Fund supplies 1 million smallholder farmers with the agricultural services they need to make their farms vastly more productive. We provide quality farm supplies on credit, delivered within walking distance of farmers’ homes, and agricultural training to improve harvests. We measure our success by our ability to make farmers more prosperous: On average, farmers harvest 50 percent more food after working with One Acre Fund.
One Acre Fund - Ethiopia is partnering with the ANRS Bureau of Agriculture, Environment, Forest and Wildlife Protection and Development Authority (EFWPaDA), Bureau of Finance and Economic Cooperation (BoFEC), Cooperative Promotion Agency (CPA), and Amhara Regional Agricultural Research Institute (ARARI) to improve farmer incomes and environmental outcomes through agroforestry entrepreneurs and teff seed multiplication. We are in an exciting phase of work in which we are trialing novel approaches and preparing for scale-up in the coming years. One Acre Fund is committed to being a great place to work and offers many opportunities for professional advancement and learning.
