Backpack Farm, an organization that provides tools and training to farmers in Africa, most eye catchingly in the form of a backpack full of what farmers need to get started, is what David Jeromin, managing director of Golden Means Capital, calls "a brilliant idea."
In this lively interview, Jeromin describes how he was attracted to the vision of Backpack Farms founder Rachel Zedeck, who is aiming to create a platform that will help small African farmers earn money, build their ability to grow food, enhance nutrition, promote gender equality and improve water management.
