EPICENTAR in partnership with IADK recently organized field training event as part of the Integrated Water Resources Management Project (IWRM-K) funded by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). These events brought together 20 apple farmers in Ferizaj and over 30 raspberry farmers in Podujevo. Our aim is to cultivate knowledge, empower farmers, and promote sustainable farming practices.
The apple farmer training event in Ferizaj delved into the intricacies of apple cultivation. Expert trainers shared insights on orchard management, disease control, soil health maintenance, and post-harvest techniques. The raspberry farmers in Podujevo participated in a specialized training event focused on planting techniques, irrigation methods, and disease prevention. Both events provided invaluable knowledge and practical skills for long-term success in farming.
These field training events serve as platforms for knowledge exchange, skill development, and community collaboration. Our commitment to promoting sustainable farming practices through Integrated Water Resources Management ensures efficient water utilization and mitigates environmental impact.
