| description | - Over 31,900 smallholder farmers benefited from feed and forage interventions across North Shewa, Hadiya, Kembata, Siltie, and Guraghe zones, with 23–25% being women farmers.
- A total of 998 farmers, development agents, and experts received theoretical and practical training on feed and forage production, management, utilization, and seed systems.
- Scaling challenges include limited access to certified seeds, land scarcity, weak market linkages, high input costs, inadequate coordination, policy gaps, lack of monitoring tools, and insufficient resource allocation.
- Planned actions focus on expanding forage seed commercialization models, collecting cost-benefit evidence, mapping priority forage species, and sharing lessons from scaling initiatives. |
