The chance of leaving the village in search of better life conditions is reserved only to the few who can afford it.</p><p> </p><p><img alt="Extr0-1496496003" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/430370/extr0-1496496003.jpg"></p><p><u><strong>The project:</strong></u> After spending 20 years working in Europe, an emigrant decided to go back home bringing some farm equipment and water pumps. To fully operate, <em><strong>these tools need a tractor.</strong></em></p><p>This innovation would optimize corn, wheat, millet, sorghum, peanut and manioc plantations’ productivity, to the benefit of Linkering’s internal economy.   </p><p> </p><p><img alt="Trattttt0-1496498848" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/430385/trattttt0-1496498848.jpg"></p>
