Summary, etc. |
In the last decades, conservation agriculture (CA) have been recognized as one of the best alternatives to reverse current human induced soil degradation problems within conventional agriculture systems at both small and large scale farming. Although being recognized as an effective conservation alternative, CA adoption had not yet registered a significant uptake among smallholder especially in developing countries where innumerous challenges still have to be won in order to successfully declare CA truly adopted and widely spread among poor resource farmers. In Mozambique several CA initiatives have been implemented since the 1990¡®s and more recently the central region mainly along the Beira Agricultural Growth Corridor ¨Dthe Mozambican breadbasket¡¬, significant investments are being made in order to promote CA. The SIMLESA project is among others, one of these initiatives, covering six communities distributed along Sofala, Manica and Tete provinces. In order to assess the current status and challenges for CA effective implementation in central Mozambique, this paper will highlight the experiences gathered during this first season of SIMLESA implementation focusing on: (1) farmers perceptions about CA especially in the communities hosting the trials; (2) the main constrains for farmers engagement in CA; (3) the existing approaches for CA promotion and their effectiveness; (4) lessons learnt from the interaction with other initiatives. |
