A comprehensive "Training of Trainers" program focused on Site-Specific Nutrient Management (SSNM) for Cassava took place from October 16 to 20, 2023. This initiative aimed to equip participants with the skills and knowledge required to effectively deliver SSNM topics, with a specific focus on using the Nutrient Expert for Cassava Software.
The training brought together 20 dedicated Agricultural Extension Workers (AEWs) from Region XII and the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM). These participants, who play a pivotal role in disseminating crucial agricultural practices and information, engaged in an intensive learning experience to enrich their understanding of SSNM for Cassava.
This educational effort was spearheaded by the Corn Program, under the capable leadership of Ms. Alma G. Camales. The program stands as a testament to the commitment of the agricultural sector in advancing knowledge and fostering more efficient and sustainable farming practices. It underscores the importance of training and capacity building to enhance the skills of those on the frontline of agricultural extension and development.
