We had an open house for representatives from the 8 villages where we’re working. We were fortunate also that the mayors of the two communes where we work joined us for the entire morning. It was a great day full of discussion, laughter and wishes for our farmers’ success.

A farmer from Karako Village leads a problem-solution discussion with his group. The farmers across the board asked us to do more marketing and trainings and had concerns about whether or not the seeds we provide were Genetically Modified (they're not). The Faso Kaba seed rep was on hand to share that the seeds that Faso Kaba and myAgro provides are cultivated in Mali for Malian lands.
