FAO helps develop the curricula for Turkey’s new Farmer Field Schools

Held in Konya, Turkey, between 9 and 12 October, in cooperation with Turkey’s Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, FAO’s Farmer Field School Curriculum Development Workshop hosted wide-ranging discussions on how best to further adopt the Farmer Field School method in the region. The workshop was organized within the context of the “Sustainable land management and climate-friendly agriculture” project, which is funded by the Global Environmental Fund and implemented by FAO in the Konya Closed Basin, in coordination with the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. The project’s Farmer Field School development activities represent the first programmatic effort in the country to help promote this participatory, innovative method of agricultural learning on a large scale.
