Organic Farming, Livestock and Natural Resource Management.
The project will promote sustainable community driven smart climate agroecology, agroforestry,
organic farming, livestock development and natural resource management among local farmers in Bole traditional area. The project seeks to address poverty, improve income earning, and promote livelihoods and food security through a market-led climate smart vegetable gardening, mix cropping, bee keeping, honey production, livestock production and agroecology activities. Through climate smart agricultural techniques, the project will address the risks associated with climate change variability, and food insecurity within the Black Volta River basin in the Bole-Bamboi Areas. Through the GEF fund support, the project would mobilize and support 200 small holder farmers into fresh vegetables (onions, okra, tomatoes, pepper, cabbage, latus, carrots etc.), Beekeeping, Agroforestry, and livestock development program in accordance with farmers and market preference. Realizing that women are the most affected when it comes to climate change impacts. The project takes extra measures to ensure that Over 50% of the actual project direct beneficiaries are women. This project aims to contribute towards improving local food security schemes, scale-up nutritional levels, end hunger, malnutrition, and poverty through promotion of agroecological techniques. This project aims to promote food sufficiency and scale-up nutritional levels through engaging smallholder women and youth farmers in large scale climate smart livestock rearing, beekeeping, agroforestry technologies and vegetable production.
