Page 20 - 2017 RWANDA

We were informed that this crop represents a significant export for

Rwanda. The plants produce Pyrethrin—the main ingredient for

insecticide, used by farmers and gardeners all over the world.

Again we hired two porters since the first two had made our initial

climb so successful. Emmy & his much stronger friend whose name I

never could understand both worked for us just as well. Perhaps even

more was demanded of them too. On the very steep and rocky descent
(an alternate path from the one we used to climb up), I probably would

have fallen innumerable times and broken who knows how many

bones.
