Under the Strengthening of Smallholder Farmers’ Resilience Against Changing Climate (SCRAS) Project funded by Misereor, NABOCADO continues to support farming communities to transition toward sustainable Agricultural practices.
In recent days, our field officer Albert Avoka has been training smallholder farmers across project communities in Kesena-Nankana and Builsa South Districts of the Upper East region on how to produce organic compost using locally available materials like dry weeds, crop residues, and animal droppings.
These practical, hands-on sessions are empowering farmers to independently create affordable, eco-friendly fertilizer right in their backyards.
The intervention also contributes directly to reducing farmers’ dependency on chemical fertilizers, lowering production costs, and protecting environmental and soil health. The resulting compost will nourish farmers’ fields, improve soil fertility, and boost yields- all while keeping farming sustainable and climate-resilient.
Through such initiatives, the SCRAS Project continues to strengthen climate resilience, promote environmentally friendly farming, and enhance livelihoods across project communities.
