Project Report | Oct 11, 2007
October 2007 Update

By Katherine Zavala | Programs Coordinator

In the communities of Francisco Villa, DESMI provided training workshops to the community members to reflect on the importance of sustainable agriculture when it is based on a model that respects and conserves the environment. The training raised awareness of the effects of conventional farming that depends on external raw materials and can destroy natural resources in the long term.

Throughout the workshops, DESMI imparted skills on how to produce organic fertilizers such as the ones made through vermicompost and by cattle droppings.
