Training modules on Conservation Agriculture

Conservation Agriculture aims to conserve, improve and make more efficient use of natural resources through integrated management of available soil, water and biological resources combined with external inputs. It contributes to environmental conservation as well as to enhanced and sustained agricultural production. The purpose of these training modules is to support the promotion of Conservation Agriculture at community level. The modules provide practical information about the different principles of Conservation Agriculture. A next version will include a module with exercises for learning-by-doing and will allow rapid consultation of the different modules through interactive menus and cross-reference in the text.
