Training & agronomy

Regenerative agronomy, taught through women-led hubs.

More than 100 women-led training hubs turn regenerative science into simple field habit — restoring soils and raising yields, and proving it with data season over season.

What farmers learn

What does regenerative training cover?

01

Cover cropping

Keeping living roots in the ground to protect and feed the soil between cash crops.

02

Reduced tillage

Disturbing the soil less, so structure, moisture and soil life are preserved.

03

Agroforestry

Integrating trees with crops for shade, nitrogen, resilience and an extra harvest.

04

Soil-health monitoring

Measuring soil and yield over time, so farmers see the gains and keep the practice.

The women-led model

Why women lead the hubs

Women are central to West African smallholder farming, and they make training stick. WARC's 100+ women-led hubs put trusted local leaders at the centre of agronomy — raising adoption, building community, and widening who benefits from the first mile.

How training works

Practice over theory, measured over time

  1. Step 1

    Learn at a hub

    Farmers learn at a nearby women-led training hub — practical, in-field, in the local context.

  2. Step 2

    Apply on your plot

    Simple field protocols are applied on the farmer's own land, not just demonstrated.

  3. Step 3

    Measure the gains

    Soil-health and yield data is captured season over season to prove what works.

  4. Step 4

    Spread what works

    Lead farmers carry proven practice across the community, compounding adoption.
