The Mulch Paradox
Every Smallholder Knows. Nobody Does It. Here's Why — and How to Fix It.
If you ask any agronomist in the world how to fix poor soil, conserve water, and stop weeds, they will all give you the same answer. It is mulch.
Yet, if you visit smallholder farms across Africa right now, almost no one is doing it at scale. Why is the cheapest, most universally recommended agricultural practice on earth also the most widely ignored?
In this session, we are looking at the brutal, ground-level economics of the smallholder system. We will unpack the "Mulch Paradox" and explore why farmers are actually making a highly rational economic choice when they leave their soil bare.
Who is this for?
This webinar is ideal for agro dealers, farmers, agribusiness growers, extension workers, and anyone who wants to improve crop performance through better soil management.
