Our Comprehensive Services
Climate Field Services (CFS) provides a wide range of specialized services targeted at both rural smallholder farmers and institutional entities.
Agrometeorological Advisory Services
Because most smallholder farming is rain-fed, understanding weather patterns is critical. We bridge the gap between complex climate data and actionable farming practices.
- Translating seasonal climate forecasts for local application.
- Predicting and planning for intra-seasonal dry spells.
- Integrating climate data into daily agricultural production.
- Training on climate-smart agriculture practices for increased crop yield.
Soil Fertility & Nutritional Enhancement
We champion natural methods to reclaim degraded soils and improve the health of both the earth and the community.
- Promoting the use of legumes (such as Sunhemp) for improving soil fertility.
- Reclaiming degraded soils by naturally inputting soil nitrogen and humus.
- Reducing maize production costs by minimizing reliance on chemical fertilizers.
- Enhancing the nutritional value of subsequent crops grown in previously Sunhemp-treated fields.
Crop Diversification & Market Access
Farming must be financially sustainable. We help farmers transition to diverse, high-value crops and secure buyers before the harvest.
- Guiding crop diversification strategies (e.g., transitioning to sunflower cultivation).
- Creation of structured markets for diverse crops.
- Implementing contract farming management systems.
- Improving financial stability for rural farming households.
Community Forest Protection
Environmental conservation goes hand-in-hand with agricultural success. We enforce grassroots environmental protection.
- Promoting the protection of small forests surrounding farmers’ improved fields.
- Aggregating protected zones to create large-scale forest sanctuaries.
- Serving as a direct mitigation measure against climate change.
- Empowering local community protection as opposed to relying solely on challenging external bylaws.
Consultancy & Research
Our expertise extends beyond the field. We partner with donors, NGOs, and government entities to provide data-driven insights.
- Consultancy: Climate risk assessments, project baseline surveys, and project impact assessments.
- Information Dissemination: Provision of climate information services via tailored rural radio listening clubs.
- Research: Specialized climate research services and the integration of climate data into high-level agricultural planning and development.
