Nigeria
“...As someone who managed over 200 hectares of crops, I experienced the challenges of exhaustive farm walks to monitor crop performance, pests, and weeds. Seeing a white man using drones on a larger farm in Niger sparked my interest in this technology. I'm now proudly certified as a drone operator and data analyst through the PAIP training.”
Kenya
”Though distance for me was a barrier in participating in the onsite practical training, I still found the online courses and virtual masterclasses for various industry experts very valuable, because they help me understand more about agriculture, and it can also go digital. I will advise this to be brought to Kenya for the youths to benefit from it. Glad to join this program from Kenya.”
Rwanda
“P.A.I.P was an incredible journey that equipped me with the knowledge and skills to navigate the ever-evolving world of precision agriculture technologies. I'm confident that these skills will allow me to make a significant impact on the agricultural industry in Rwanda by promoting sustainable practices and maximizing crop productivity.”
