Training of Trainers to improve agricultural resilience to salinity in Togo

Under the RESADE project supported by International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) and the Arab Bank for Economic Development in Africa (BADEA), ICBA scientists conducted a workshop for 10 local trainers in Togo on 24-28 May 2021 in collaboration with the Togolese Institute of Agricultural Research (ITRA).

During the workshop, the scientists and local trainers interacted with about 50 local farmers at the Best Practices Hub (BPH) to finalize a Farmer’s Field School curriculum. The local trainers also learned about the cultivation of different crops (quinoa, pearl millet, sorghum, barley, buffel grass and cowpea) and biochar production.
