Project GAERS – Training Farmers to Develop Natural Fertilizers in Farm Laboratories and through Whatsapp in Nigeria
The GAERS project aims to train smallholder farmers in Sokoto State, Nigeria, in the development and use of natural fertilisers. In thisregion over 87.73% of the population lives below the poverty line and agriculture is affected by high production costs and insufficient government support. Selected farmers learn how to produce natural fertilisers and pesticides from local resources. They are supported by volunteers, who will disseminate the knowledge in the region. The aim is to reduce dependence on expensive chemical fertilisers, increase soil fertility and thus improve yields. The farmers learn how to use microorganisms and biological methods to improve the soil through online and face-to-face training.
