In the project’s conservation agriculture (CA) scheme, maize is intercropped with legumes such as soybeans and nitrogen-fixing species. These farmers are taking part in a Farmer Field Day, which are held regularly in all five zones and are open to CA farmers as well as others still following conventional agricultural practices who are not yet in the scheme. At this event in Biwa village, Agriculture Extension Officer Benjamin Kateka from the Ministry of Agriculture, Masaiti District is responding to technical questions and advising the farmers on the best CA practices.
