What We Do

Practical programmes and partnerships that strengthen farmers, youth, and rural communities.

Soil Health & Regenerative Farming

We train farmers and facilitators in composting, bio-inputs, microbial fertilisers, dry sowing systems, and practical soil restoration methods that reduce dependence on costly chemicals.

Market-Aware Livelihood Design

We support communities to design realistic farming and livelihood pathways that respond to local markets — not assumptions.

Demonstration Farm & Training Hub

A practical learning center where farmers, youth, and extension agents gain hands-on skills in regenerative and climate-smart agriculture, providing a live environment for partners and stakeholders to observe solutions in practice.

Digital & Virtual Exchange Learning

Through partnerships such as the Erasmus+ Virtual Exchange programme, we connect youth across regions to share knowledge and build green skills.

Digital E-Learning for Volunteer Agents

GAERS launched its first structured E-Learning Program to upskill volunteer extension agents after observing significant knowledge gaps during farmer interactions — particularly among women volunteers who often lacked confidence in addressing technical questions. The program consisted of seven modules covering soil health, sustainable farming practices, safe post-harvest handling, extension delivery, and farmer engagement.

Food Safety & Post-Harvest Program

This workshop, held in Zaria and focused on vegetable farmers, was designed in response to findings from our farmer survey. It also marked the official launch of IDAP Zaria — GAERS’ first dedicated farmer WhatsApp group. Before this, GAERS only operated a general stakeholder group. With IDAP Zaria, we created a space for continuous learning and peer support, ensuring farmers remain equipped with practical knowledge beyond the training event.
