Farmers in Burundi now get roughly 70 cents per kilogram for the same quantity of avocados.
The transactions now promise real earnings thanks in part to the intervention of the national government and farmers’ cooperatives.
Government ramped up its efforts to organize avocado exports earlier this year as dollar fueled sporadic shortages of sugar and other goods.
Burundi , a small mountainous country about the size of Maryland , is home to 13 million people.
Agriculture is the main economic activity, and many people in rural provinces mostly grow potatoes and vegetables.
For some, including those with a few avocado trees in their compounds, the pear-shaped green fruit has proven a surprisingly reliable source of income.
