Easier and Faster Way of Organic Compost-Making Training

 A faster method of compost making training, which leads to finished compost in around 45 days and avoids frequent turning, was given to female farmers and agricultural development agents in two districts, Habru and Gubalafto, North Wollo Zone on 21 & 22 November 2022.

The training included preparation of organic compost making above the ground and in a pit, preparation of natural fertilizers prepared in liquid form and sprinkled on fields, and training in preparation of natural pesticides.

After the training, the female farmer trainees said that they were happy with the training and in the future, based on the training they received, they hoped to prepare and use compost, and they would share the knowledge with other female farmers who did not take the training and scale up making and using natural fertilizer in their area.

The agricultural development agents, on their part, said that they will use the training they have received to train other farmers and scale up and using organic composting in the area.
