Resources
Oriented Development Initiatives (RODI) was founded in 1989, as a
Community Based Organization (CBO). The aim of founding RODI was to
promote alternative forms of agriculture within the reach of poor
farmers, who could not afford the expensive and environmental
unfriendly conventional agriculture package (hybrid seed, industrial
chemical fertilizer, and chemicals for disease and pest control,
mechanization and irrigation). RODI used to be known as Organic
Farming Outreach Programme (OFOP).
RODI
attained NGO registration in 1999. In order to increase international
linking and networking and chances of resource mobilization, RODI
registered in the UK in 2005 as a Company Limited by Guarantee.
RODIUK attained Charity registration November 2007. RODIs
headquarters are in Ruiru, 25 km Northeast of Nairobi.
