With the growing effects of climate change, smallholder farmers stand at the risk of facing challenges due to the lack of resources. Farmers therefore require training that provides them with the necessary knowledge and resources to build resilience to challenges, long-term food security and environmental health. This training must cover a wide range of topics including agroecology, integrated pest management, water conservation and sustainable methods. This helps farmers reduce their reliance on chemical inputs, mitigate soil degradation, and enhance biodiversity.Training programs must also emphasise financial literacy, market access, and community collaboration, fostering resilient farming communities. Ultimately, investing in farmer training for sustainable practices not only secures livelihoods but also protects ecosystems.
