Event: 2019 East Africa Highlands Symposium (26/11/2019)

Session: Farmer to farmer follow up is playing a complementary role to formal extension services in facilitating the spread of agriculture technologies and the improvement of food security across rural village, Kiramutse, Southern Province of Rwanda. This session will discuss the importance of follow up to achieve high adoption. Consistently following up with farmers who have received agriculture training reveals the successes and challenges they are experiencing. It also allows guidance to correct for any procedures not being followed or to identify areas that may be unique to a family’s situation. Lastly, consistent, humble and loving follow-up communicates to the farmer that has value and dignity. This encouragement can show that she/he is capable of changing the health of her family in a dramatic way.
