Farmer 2 Farmer

Overview

Farmer-to-Farmer provides technical assistance from highly-skilled U.S. volunteers to Cambodian farmers and agricultural groups to promote sustainable improvements in both food security and agricultural production, processing, and marketing in Cambodia. This draws on a “toolkit” of interventions, including improving soil health, managing water resources, improving access to germplasm, promoting integrated pest management, and strengthening crop rotations through new livestock grazing regimes. We are recruiting Cambodian host-organizations to support both Cambodian and American F2F volunteers to provide hands-on training around these intervention areas. F2F volunteers exchange technical assistance with these communities to address specific needs identified by hosts.
