The Farmer Field School (FFS) model which is a participatory approach in diffusing science-based knowledge and information to farmers through a domesticated curriculum has been adopted. Over time we realized that FFS helps young mothers to discover critical concepts by observation and deductive reasoning.This is an important step if science is to make meaning to our smallholder farmers through improved post-harvest handling, agri-business development and improved nutrition. So far small-scale pilot interventions are managed in Nabukalu Sub-county as a sustainable model of maternal and child nutrition using community-based resources.
