Welcome!

This blog will be utilized to communicate with the general public and our loved ones the progress and success achieved in our mission.  We are excited about what we will be doing in Ghazni Province, Afghanistan to empower the Afghan government and people in their Agribusiness endeavors.  Currently, 78.6% of the Afghan labor force work in the field of agriculture.  (CIA - The World Factbook)  Expertise on the agriculture team includes: geology and hydrology, horticulture, large and small ruminate specialists, aquaculture, apiary management, agricultural extension services and economic specialists. 

Within the ADT 5 team there is also a Female Engagement Team (FET) that will be working with the women and women's groups of Ghazni Province to help identify and find ways to empower the government to fill the needs of their women.

 We look forward to the upcoming year and sharing our progress with you!
