My hat is off to CARE for taking this important step (see article) to stop selling subsidized American farm products but instead, to help poor African farmers start profitable businesses that can help sustain them for the long run. This was an act of leadership that should be applauded. I’m eager to see what is learned in these next years about the building of agri-businesses in very low-income communities and also what role Acumen Fund might eventually play.
