Promoting agroecological practices

Based on the “Agroecology in Practice” guide (Agrisud, 2010), this course helps participants learn these practices. 
It is based on transferring methods and tools to: 


•  Understand agroecology and its economic, social and environmental dimensions;
•  Understand the sustainable management of a farming system;
•  Analyze the context of operation and identify the appropriate 
agroecological practices;
•  Be able to spread these practices.

On the island of Djerba, family farms are weakened by a number of constraints. Agrisud has been supporting them since 2012 in partnership with the Club Med.

There are two goals to this project: to introduce new agricultural practices to secure, diversify and enhance productions and also to increase the value of products in local supply chains to generate satisfactory income.
