Phone messages promote agroecological intensification – Evidence from a randomised controlled trial in Mali
How can farmers in resource-limited areas access vital knowledge on sustainable agriculture? A project study in Mali reveals that interactive voice recordings (IVR) on basic mobile phones can drive agroecological intensification. By sharing simple yet impactful practices like crop rotation, mulching, and pest management, this digital innovation significantly boosts adoption and awareness—even in regions with limited literacy or internet access. Could this be the game-changer for scaling sustainable farming in the Sahel?
