Georgian farmers increase income and productivity with EU and FAO support
Georgia. More than 700 farmers from all over Georgia participated in training programs organized by FAO in 2020 with the support of the European Union (EU), under the ENPARD program. FAO international and local agronomists conducted a comprehensive training program through hands-on field training throughout the country.
The sessions covered many critically-important topics, including soil preparation and seed selection, irrigation, harvesting, post-harvest storage, and transportation to the markets. With more than 40 demonstration plots established in various regions of Georgia, the country's farmers have had the opportunity to observe and learn the best agricultural practices in the field first-hand. Many of these farmers have already succeeded in bringing these modern innovations to their plots and enjoyed the benefits.
