| Do you want to be at the forefront of the affordable technology revolution? Throughout our 26 year history, IDE has identified, developed and marketed low-cost, low environmental impact, labor-saving technologies. Your contribution to this initiative will help us develop and market the next wave of affordable, income-enhancing technologies, like low pressure crop sprinklers that can work with drip irrigation systems, and a low-cost water storage bag that can hold 10,000 liters of monsoon rainwater for use during the dry season. |

Our Life is Much Better
A case study from Zambia
More than 70% of Zambians live in poverty. With a per capita income of $395, Zambia ranks among the world’s poorest countries. Crisis-level famine and poverty are compounded by low population density and long distances between settlements, making it difficult for small farmers to access markets.
Before learning about IDE, Peter Chakanyuka, along with his wife and six children, farmed a ½ hectare plot of land. Depending upon rain for irrigation, his family could only grow maize and peanuts, with yields that were too small to sell.
