The Volunteer Farmer Trainer Approach Three Years after the Exit of the East Africa Dairy Development Project: A Case Study of Four Dairy Producer Organizations in Kenya

This study has shown that VFTs are still training other farmers in Central and Rift Valley three years after the exit of EADD project. A majority of the farmers have received training on fodder/pasture establishment and fodder conservation technologies. Furthermore, VFTs have demonstration plots which they use for training. This study has also shown that the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries (MALF) extension officers continue to partner with VFTs when training farmers. This is commendable since it provides an opportunity for VFTs to improve their knowledge and skills.
