Hello, I was wondering if anyone here can offer advice and direction. A brief introduction. I am currently working on my masters in community and international development. I recently returned form a study tour in Madagascar and as some of you might know it is one of the poorest countries on earth. A group of us would like to help over there by building a vocational school. While there I visited an Eco-village and got my first exposure to permaculture. I was so impressed that I would like to integrate it into the school. My plan is to add it into the curriculum and use it to provide students with at least one meal a day. We are hoping for around 100 students but it could be as high as 200. Is this a viable plan? How much land would you recommend is needed to make this work? I am also looking into adding SRI method for rice cultivation. Do any of you have any thoughts on integrating rice into a permaculture plan?Any and all advice is welcome and greatly appreciated!!!
