@citizentvkenya @citizentvkenya ask the scientist to explain more about Tela maize. I thought it was developed by AATF (African Agricultural Technology Foundation). Is KALRO the developer?

How it is done.
Training lead farmers so that they can teach their community members to grow more so that they can sell more.

It's crucial to share knowledge with lead farmers and change agents to improve production and boost productivity in farm enterprises. Sharing is caring. @RippleEffectNGO

One of the farm technologies we teach the rural smallholder farmers we work with is keyhole gardening. A keyhole garden is a round garden made with a compost basket in the middle and a compost access section on one side. What are some of the advantages? 🧵 #garden #farm #rural

Understanding the right variety suitable in your area, getting quality planting material, enriching your soil with organic matter and getting right agronomic advice from experts is key towards successful fruits growing. #lowhangingfruis

Pineapples take about 12-24 months to reach maturity, depending on the variety. 
Collaboration between farmers, researchers, extension services, and relevant stakeholders is crucial in overcoming possible challenges and ensuring sustainable pineapple farming. @kilimoKE

Improved forage grasses provide nutrients and high quality feed for livestock hence supporting the health and productivity of animals. Increased productivity of milk and meat provides good income for farmers.

Starting the new year with preparing farmers for the coming long rain season is so refreshing and a nice way to start a productive year. Learn more! Grow more! Sell more.

@MarshalPapworth @HarperAdamsUni On Mr. Neil's farm, I learned that if we want to get a good harvest of English potatoes, we should get planting material for clean sources free from pests and diseases. For him, he gets his potato planting materials from Scotland where viral and bacterial levels are minimal.

[Ripple Effect @RippleEffectNGO]

This is what we need to see: regenerative farming which protects and builds the land for the future as worthy of headlines when talking about #WorldFoodDay2023 @StandardKenya
