Series 16 - Ep 3: Conservation Agriculture
Welcome to Shamba Shape Up Series 16!
We have looked at soil testing, fertilizer and choosing the right seed. We are now ready for planting and I’m sure you are hoping that the rains will be just right. Unfortunately, we can’t be too sure because the weather has changed and many farmers across the world are experiencing this.
But there’s one thing we can do, we can try and adapt to the changing climate.
Today, we will look at Conservation Agriculture or CA in short, which has been a great tool in fighting climate change and getting better yields.
We are learning about:
1. Minimum Tillage
2. Intercropping
3. Crop Rotation
4. Strip Cropping
