We conduct essential practical training on pesticide safety and proper dosage at demonstration farms across Huluuq, Agamsaha, Biyo macaan, and Arabsiyo villages. This hands-on training equips farmers with crucial knowledge and skills for safe and effective pesticide use.
Farmers learn to accurately measure and mix pesticides, ensuring the correct dosage is applied to avoid both under-application and over-application. They also receive instruction on proper application techniques, such as spraying patterns and timing, to maximize efficacy while minimizing environmental impact. Furthermore, the training emphasizes safe handling and storage practices, including the use of personal protective equipment and the proper disposal of empty containers.
By providing farmers with this practical knowledge, we empower them to make informed decisions about pesticide use and minimize risks to human health and the environment. This training contributes to more sustainable agricultural practices by encouraging the adoption of integrated pest management (IPM) strategies, which prioritize non-chemical control methods alongside responsible pesticide use.
