APPSA Trains Extension Officers on Alley Cropping Approach

Good day,

Twenty (20) extension officers from four districts of Lesotho (Mokhotlong, Leribe, Maseru and Mohales’ Hoek) were trained on alley cropping approach from the 17th to 20th June 2024. The training was conducted as one of the key activities of an on-going sub-project under the Agricultural Productivity Programme for Southern Africa (APPSA) titled “Promotion of vegetable production under intercropping systems” led by Mr Rets’elisitsoe Leku from the Department of Agricultural Research.

Alley cropping is an agroforestry system where trees are planted in rows or alleys within agricultural fields, with crops grown in the spaces between the tree rows - Ivezić, V., Lorenz, K., & Lal, R. (2022).
