As we were entering the Parliament grounds in Tanzania, we met with the Regional Commissioner of Manyara, Makongoro Nyerere, the son of the founding father of Tanzania, Julius Nyerere. We requested to take a photo with him and handed him a copy of the Innovative Farmer Magazine.

The African Organic Network acknowledges that making a difference in the world does not necessarily require immense resources, but rather the support of those who share similar goals.

[AfrONet @AfrONet_]

#However, the adoption and success of agroecology in Africa will depend on various factors, such as policy support, investment, education, and collaboration among different stakeholders.

[AfrONet @AfrONet_]

Agroecology can contribute to increasing food security, reducing poverty, and enhancing biodiversity while promoting the use of local resources and empowering local communities.

Planting and practicing soil care activities without first doing a soil test is like setting a broken bone without X-ray or MRI. 🌱

High Court has stopped the importation & distribution of GMOs until a case filed by the Kenyan Peasants League is heard and determined.

Great work by @PeasantsLeague & @arendeoriri

In a petition filed by the Kenyan Peasants League (KPL), the petitioners opposed the importation, cultivation, and consumption of GMO crops and food arguing that they posed a deadly health hazard to Kenyans, particularly the poor and those of low income.

The Ruto administration suffered a major blow today after High Court sitting in Nairobi stopped the Government from Importing or distributing any GMO crops and food.

AfrONet commends the Kenyan Peasants League (KPL), for filling this petition.

As the UN climate summit returns to #Africa after six years, AFSA will launch a social media campaign advocating for international support for #agroecology as a just solution to address the #ClimateCrisis.

The continent has vast potential to feed itself and one of the ways is through supporting the increased cultivation of forgotten crops like Fingermillet, groundnuts, tef, yams, cassava, cowpea, and pigeon pea to mention a few https://t.co/HfPtGIgmeX

African Organic Network (AfrONet) is existing to find lasting solutions to not only the problem of food security but more importantly, food quality which leads to nutritional security and is a panacea to undernourishment and stunting.

[AfrONet @AfrONet_]

We have so far achieved 45% of the planned milestone and deliverables through the IIABA project as per the Logical Framework

[AfrONet @AfrONet_]

We all know that food quantity is different from food quality and food security is different from nutritional security. This is to say, one can have plenty of food and be able to eat to the full brim every day but still be undernourished.
