Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 81013, member: 636"] Farmers are getting schooled on keeping the water flowing. The National Irrigation Commission is training them to manage and maintain irrigation systems, aiming to combat climate impacts like drought and flood. Sessions at schemes like Ngabobo in Arumeru District focus on preventing infrastructure damage and boosting crop yields. The goal is to enable year-round farming independent of rainfall, which should improve food security and household income. This initiative also aims to cut government costs on fixing broken systems by promoting proper upkeep. The NIRC plans to roll out similar training across the country's irrigation schemes, part of a broader strategy to make agriculture more resilient to climate change and strengthen its role in the national economy.
