Clare Omal from Uganda graduated from the Marshal Papworth 10-week Short Course in 2015. On completing the course, Clare went on to educate others in-country on new farming approaches she learnt on the course. Together with the extension staff of her local district’s government she holds plant clinics, which include workshops and training in a number of areas targeted at farmers in the community.
Clare commented: “My focus during the plant clinics is to educate farmers in soil and water management, crop management and nutrition, and crop rotation.
“I use the knowledge gained through the Marshal Papworth Short Course to educate others, so that they can improve their livelihoods, and the situation for others around them.”
Clare’s plant clinics include the following training:
