Rwanda is a poor rural nation with approximately 90 per cent of the general population engaged in agriculture, fisheries and farming. It is the most densely populated nation in Africa and is landlocked with few natural resources and minimal industry. Primary foreign currency exchange earners are coffee and tea. Despite Rwanda's fertile ecosystem, food stuffs production often does not keep pace with general populace growth, requiring food stuffs imports.
