MODULE 1 

This module is designed to enhance learners' abilities to implement integrated, climate- smart production practices through hands-on training in drip irrigation installation and maintenance, soil testing, and the application of climate data for informed farm decision-making. Learners will acquire practical skills in the installation, operation, and maintenance of drip irrigation systems to optimise water-use efficiency, as well as techniques for soil sampling, testing, and analysis to inform nutrient and soil management strategies. Additionally, the module introduces the utilisation of climate and weather data to facilitate informed decisions. Through demonstrations, field practicals, and problem-based learning, the module promotes data-driven, sustainable, and climate- resilient farming practices.

Total duration of the module: 11 hours 40 minutes
