Planting on annual ridges is labour-intensive, reduces water infiltration, and only allows wider row spacing to accommodate the ridges. Flat planting with minimum tillage saves the soil while allowing narrower legume spacing and, ultimately, higher returns. #UUInitiative #Malawi

Our first farmer #sharefair in Masvingo started with a field visit to a (very droughted) Mother trial. Conservation Ag can make a difference under #ElNino and #mechanization is an entry point.

The energy at the #UUShareFair is contagious! CGIAR #UUInitiative has brought together over 50 farmers to share knowledge, resources, and innovations for sustainable agriculture “Let's learn from each other and grow together!”🌱💧🌾 #BuildingConnections #PuttingFarmersFirst

It is just beautiful how diversified systems can keep going under harsh conditions. #UUInitiative showcasing the resilience of such systems in #Malawi

Proud that you have highlighted 19 years of persistence at this District by @cimmyt and partners. #Adoption is no longer low with Conservation Ag
