Training for farmers
The Gambia National Agricultural Research Institute (NARI) is a research body that works internationally with other institutes in Nigeria, Benin and Niger.
NARI has several centres:
- Brikama
- Sapu
- Yundum
- other small facilities throughout the Gambia.
NARI researches agricultural topics. These include:
- pest control
- soil analysis
- food quality.
Ensuring good soil quality and reducing the number of pests makes it easier to grow crops and improves the quality of the foodstuffs harvested.
You can learn a lot of new things about agriculture at the NARI centres and also learn how to manage your farm more effectively.
