Results show that 70,000 farm households were positively impacted and nine primary cooperatives established, including three women’s cooperatives. Introducing chickpea as a double crop helped mitigate risk when the preceding crop failed. 135,000 households received information through Farm Radio International messages. The project engaged policy makers through establishing the regional pulse platform. Constraints to scaling up are also reviewed in this report. In order to increase seed availability to address increasing demand from famers, expanded partnerships are needed.application/pdfenETHIOPIASOUTH OF SAHARALOCAL FOOD SYSTEMSFOOD SECURITYSMALLHOLDERSBEANSCHICKPEASLEGUMESPULSESEXTENSION SERVICESFARM RADIOSCALING UPFinal Technical Report
