Field days event “Let’s grow vegetable for income and nutrition improvement”

YBTS held the field day with the theme “Let’s Grow Vegetable for Income and Nutrition Improvement” on May 30, 2017. This event was conducted in Igimbay Village, Anggi Subdistrict and was attended by 201 farmers and government. We started the event with visiting the demo field. Our key farmers explain every crop info and GAP that has been applied. After that, Chairperson of YBTS, Dr. Edwin Saragih explained about how important it is to adopt the best practice to increase the yield, and promote about vegetable consumption. Following is a speech from Bank Indonesia, and Provincial Government (Agriculture Technology Department). The provincial government also appreciated the farmers group by giving some farming tools for 10 selected farmers to support their on farm activities. We also distribute the Crop Guide and a copy of GAP video for participants.
