We are continually heartened by the progress and dedication of our elderly community members in the ongoing sustainable agriculture initiative here at Gesabakwa in Ogembo, Kisii County! Our elders are actively participating and applying their newfound knowledge with remarkable skill.
A significant focus of this training, expertly guided by dedicated agricultural officers, has been on soil health and nutrient management. This includes the crucial practical application of fertilizers, where our elders are diligently working to enrich the soil. This practical work is a vital step in understanding not just how to apply these nutrients, but why precise application is essential for maximizing yields and ensuring long-term soil fertility.
The commitment of our elders to learning and implementing these modern farming techniques is truly inspiring. Their enthusiasm, combined with their invaluable traditional wisdom, is creating a powerful force for agricultural success in our community.
This agricultural initiative continues to deliver significant benefits, including:
