Training includes practices such as composting, integrated pest management, crop rotation, and the use of simple and sustainable tools, suitable for the local context.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, hundreds of girls and boys have received training and support to start their own agricultural business. In recent years, the center has expanded its commitment with <strong>intensive residential courses<\/strong>, which offer participants the opportunity to stay free of charge at the facility.
