Heavy rainfall accompanied by strong winds occurred in Kabarondo Sector, Kayonza District, on September 16, 2025, causing significant damage to agricultural activities in the area. The SERVE supported activities that were affected by the rain. The crisis affected 25 MSEs. The crisis led to loss of income, increased food shortages, and rising uncertainty about the future as many depend on agriculture and small-scale activities for their businesses and food security. In response to the crisis, CARE Rwanda contracted Agri Chain Solutions Group to supply fertilizers, seeds, and pesticides to youth MSEs affected by heavy rains in Kabarondo Sector, Kayonza District.
