Happy International Women's Day 2024. (fb)
Highlight of the Week: The "Mwanza Rural Women Striving for Food Security” project was funded by MCIC and began in April 2023. Ninety women in three districts of Tanzania who have access to 1 acre of land indicated interest in participating in climate resilient crop production. The women have begun to be trained on Beneficial Management Practices BMP. This includes soil fertility with applications of farmyard manure and industrial NPK fertilizers if they do not have farmyard manure. Other BMP topics include seed selection and variety selection.
