𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐲, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞. In Teso Sub-region of Uganda, small-scale farmers are turning to indigenous sorghum, Edei-Edei, to sustain production amid prolonged dry spells.
At the 2nd #NationalAgroecologyFestival, these farmers shared their experiences with indigenous seeds, showing how Farmer-Managed Seed Systems (FMSS) preserve local knowledge, safeguard crop diversity & strengthen communities’ capacity to adapt to climate shocks.
But resilient seeds need resilient markets, too.
