More and more Malawian farmers are adopting Tiyeni’s “common sense” Deep Bed Farming (DBF) method
We are pleased to announce a new partnership. Latest harvest results have seen a dramatic fourfold increase. Our Training Manager, Godfrey, shares how women farmers can be the key agents of change.
Tiyeni's Deep Bed farming activities at Chitheka, Northern Malawi.
The more farmers adopt DBF, the more manure they make and the more yields they realise.
Our Executive Director reports on Covid-19, and we report on how Tiyeni adapts to farmers' suggestions, the latest spectacular results from our survey and more.
A doubling of maize yields is found to lead to a roughly tenfold rise in profitability.
We've received numerous reports of how successfully the farmers trained by Tiyeni are implementing Deep Bed Farming across Malawi. However, the number of cases of Covid-19 is increasing to 564 as of today.
As harvest time for maize, the crop which sustains the people, approaches. The wellbeing of the nation depends on this crop.
Again, farmers are doubling or tripling their yields after converting land to Deep Bed Farming.
The 2020 harvest has begun and farmers are recording excellent yields!
Projects help some of Africa’s poorest agrarian communities and we are committed to carrying out our mission-critical services through this challenging time.
It is a well-known fact that 80% of Malawi’s population depends on rainfed subsistence agriculture for their survival.
