Stories of Change - Central Rift Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration Scale-Up Project (CRIFSUP)
Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration (FMNR) is a sustainable land restoration technique that depends on active management of bushlands, tree stumps and/or seeds that have self-germinated from the soil, allowing them to grow into productive trees. The FMNR approach provides a lowcost, low-risk method for restoration of degraded landscapes while supplying farmers with valuable economic, social and environmental benefits.
This publication records the experiences of participants who have implemented the FMNR approach through World Vision’s CRIFSUP Project.
From their encounters, you will notice how this sustainable low-cost approach has a holistic impact on women, men, children and the community at large.
Additionally, the project trains participants on other complementary components to maximise on benefits achieved from practicing FMNR. These complementary components include: Savings for Transformation (S4T), Citizen Voice and Action (CVA), Local Value Chain Development (LVCD), Empowered Worldview (EWV), energy-saving technologies, soil and water conservation, and Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA).
