“From Farm Africa, I learnt about planting in rows and using ridges. When I used to broadcast seeds, I found that water evaporated very quickly. Now I plant on ridges, which helps the soil retain moisture so it reaches the crops more slowly and prevents them from drying out.”

“Since using the improved seeds, I get higher yields, and they are not easily attacked by pests. The added advantage from Farm Africa is through contract farming: I get the seeds and pay for them once the harvest is ready."

Boost productivity
Enhancing production practices
“Before the NOURISH project, we were just scattering seeds, not planting in lines, and not waiting for the rain. Now, we remove all the unwanted material, then we plough, then wait for the rain. After the rain, we start planting, and we put manure on it. It made a big difference.”
