Watering transplanted seedlings. Farmers were introduced to the use of mulch to help keep the soil moist.

Through the 2Scale Project in Korhogo, Côte d’Ivoire, 30 villagers got together to set up a vegetable demonstration garden. To compare the benefits of different inputs, they applied a locally made plant-based biofertilizer called JATROVERT on one part of the garden; the other part was fertilized with organic compost.
