-  Training women-farmers in processing fruits and vegetables, as well as in creating income through non-agricultural activities;

-  training small farmers in using residues for feedstuff production;

-  providing know-how to the Ministry of Agriculture of Mauritius for founding a Home Rural Economics Department;
