Soil Saver
Healthy soil can store more carbon and absorb water like a sponge, helping to make crops more resilient.
Families will learn how to improve the quality of the land through composting and make the most of the natural resources around them in a sustainable way. Healthy soil and diverse farms result in higher yields and a greater variety of crops – keeping families healthy, free from poverty and protecting the planet!

“To tell the truth, our land before [the project] was unproductive. We only grew maize with a really low yield. It was a real issue when you saw the colour [of the soil]. Now the soil is dark, rich and soft. Now we grow so many different crops on our fertile land whereas it wasn’t productive before.”
