Over the past few months the GALA delivery team has been trying to understand how households in Tanzania obtained and share information on farming practices. This will help us to understand the effectiveness of different communication approaches in delivering agricultural information to small-scale farmers. It will also help us to reflect on which currently change attitude and behaviour.

Poor translation of scientific and technical research outputs is hindering the achievement of development goals. Appropriate communication language and easily understood formats which can then be adopted by farmers is key.
To address this challenge, CABI helps facilitate the use of scientific knowledge and expertise in solving problems in agriculture and the environment. Through one of its flagship projects, the Africa Soil Health Consortium (ASHC), CABI provided communication training to scientists and technical staff of some project partners at a workshop in Ouagadougou.
