What are the best communication methods to persuade farmers to use organic fertilizers
John Wick
In Argentina (my country), the National Institute of Agricultural Technology (INTA) plays an extraordinary role in providing free advice to farmers and ranchers. Due to this, Argentina is a pioneer in the implementation of new technologies. However, it is necessary to clarify that the educational level of farmers and ranchers is important. This Institute has been the key in the development of precision agriculture and the genetic improvement of our cattle. This has been achieved with permanent advice through free training courses.

Practical fields demonstration. you need to show them the response. thus they will believe you. Otherwise, they need quick response and high yield without caring about harmful effects over human health and environment.

In developing countries, mostly the local farmers are uneducated and unaware of what is best for their crops and field soil. In my opinion it is better to arrange farmer school system village by village and educate them the better practical way of using organic fertilizers

Field school methodology can offer a practical way to understand and appreciate the benefits of organic fertilizers. Through this process you can develop learning strategies by doing with a constructivist approach. The central point of the process will be to define a roadmap that allows developing the desired competencies for that purpose.
