Seed Systems, Agronomic Extension and Climate-Resilient Cropping in Nairobi

培训项目概述

This five-day professional training programme equips agricultural practitioners with practical tools to strengthen certified seed value chains, upgrade advisory services, and embed climate-resilient practices across vulnerable farming systems. Organised in Nairobi, the course delivers structured technical learning for agronomists and managers seeking to upgrade domestic crop production. Participants examine formal and semi-formal seed delivery systems, international seed quality standards, and field-level demonstration protocols designed to address chronic input shortages and environmental variability in East Africa.

The curriculum integrates practical agronomic extension methodologies with climate-smart crop management, focusing directly on the institutional and operational realities of fragile and transition contexts. Through rigorous analysis of Farmer Field School curriculum design, participatory demonstration plots, and integrated pest management, attendees learn to adapt extension messaging to vulnerable smallholders. The programme reviews established quality assurance mechanisms, post-harvest handling frameworks, and community-based seed banking models to safeguard local crop diversity and improve seasonal yields.

Participants spend the week translating internationally recognised agricultural standards into viable field interventions. Working through practical exercises, attendees build structured post-harvest loss prevention strategies, develop gender-inclusive extension schedules, and establish seed multiplication workflows tailored to challenging operational environments. By combining classroom analysis with operational case studies from the wider region, the course prepares agricultural officers to direct, monitor, and scale up donor-funded food security and livelihood initiatives effectively.

Agricultural transformation in conflict-affected and transition environments requires an immediate transition from emergency input distributions to sustainable, market-oriented seed systems and structured extension delivery. Agricultural officers and field extension teams implementing the South Sudan Resilient Agricultural Livelihoods Project face urgent demands to restore degraded seed multiplication capacity, mitigate recurring climate shocks, and eliminate severe post-harvest losses. Strengthening institutional competence in climate-resilient agronomy and participatory extension ensures that public sector interventions translate donor investments into lasting, community-level food security and agricultural recovery.

本培训项目由Risalat Consultants International在肯尼亚内罗毕举办，结合专家主讲、真实案例与小组练习，帮助学员将所学应用于本单位工作。
