testimonial

Agroecology in Senegal

“I have been growing okra, aubergines, tomatoes, chillies and lettuce for six years. I used to use chemical products and did not know the best practices for sowing seeds. I did not earn much money. Thanks to the techniques I learned with AVSF, yields have improved and the produce looks nicer. By selling more and eliminating spending on chemical products, my income has more than tripled!”

Adama Diamanka, farmer
