Season-long TOT in vegetables IPM in Petchaboon (Cabbage)

A season-long TOT on vegetables IPM was completed in Petchaboon (13 December 2004- 25 February 2005) with 27 participants from NFE, DOAE and the Agricultural College. Five farmer field schools (FFS) were completed by the participants during this TOT. The participants are now starting their first season of FFS, in most cases with NFE funding or local funding. The IPM Danida project provides backstopping and monitoring together with TEF.
