Climate change is wreaking havoc in rural farmers’ lives in Zimbabwe, often leading to poor or no harvests in back-to-back seasons. This talk will focus on results from a four-year effort to help rural farmers transition from vulnerable large-scale field-based agricultural practices like corn/soybean growing to small-scale controlled environment systems like shed-grown mushrooms and hydroponics.
The talk covers how a demonstration center’s development helped provide incentives for local farmers and international experiences for Chirenje’s university students.
