Organic agriculture through training in cantón Checambá, Sibinal, San Marcos
This project is about the establishment of 50 plots of organic Creole crops as potatoes and broad beans in 100 cuerdas of land to be worked by 50 people (Solanum tuberosum L. and phaseolus ). Each participant will also build a henhouse to avoid damages for the crops and will gather manure for organic fertilization.

Among their planned main activities are the training on issues as soil preservation; pesticides, fungicides and foliar fertilizers production; organic harvest and monitory and evaluation of the project.

They intend to get sustainability by dividing production into three, one for seeding, one for food consumption and improving so their diet, and the third one for sale and so improving their income.
