Project in detail
Thanks to the acquired knowledge about sustainable agricultural practices, the fields worked by this farmer in the district of Muminabad in Tajikistan have changed fundamentally between 2012 and 2020. The soil can absorb and store the water better, the risk of erosion and flooding has been substantially reduced.
«In the past, we often lost half of our harvests because of the changing weather. Now, our fruit trees thrive again thanks to adapted methods. Many farmers are copying us and can improve their income significantly.»Mirzoev Sunnatullo (60)Small farmer
