Paul Polak's new book: Out of Poverty

Out of Poverty, a book everyone should read!

Everything Paul proposes about getting small acreage farmers of 1-5 acres out of poverty is premised on them using DRIP IRRIGATION as a means of growing food to sell at a profit.

Paul's thoughts on poverty.

"I have no doubt that the most important low-cost, high-leverage solution to the complex issue of poverty is helping poor people increase their income."

Paul Pokak states that "early market demand suggests that the global demand for low cost drip systems will reach at least 10 million families, increasing their net annual income by $1 billion a year"

He also states that "there are 8 million or more small-acreage farmers in Africa who use buckets to carry water to their crops from streams or ponds."
