Researchers and members of the PASTINNOVA Algeria project
The workshop aimed to raise awareness among all actors in agriculture and particularly the official stakeholders of PASTINNOVA in Algeria on the scope, relevance, approach and objectives of the PASTINNOVA project.
Furthermore, the workshop sought to provide stakeholders with an explanation of their role in RLL North Africa, particularly in regards to activities planned in Algeria.
The workshop brought together candidate farmers for the creation of a pastoral association and to take ownership of the hydroponic barley innovation. As such, the methods of creating the association and the technical and economic aspects relating to hydroponics were presented and discussed.
The participants as well as the stakeholders expressed their adherence and support for the project, in particular the local agricultural authorities.
How might the workshop impact the agricultural practices of the participant farmers in the future?
