Farmer Field Schools (FFS) have been implemented in Mozambique to promote sustainable agriculture practices among smallholder farmers. This intervention aims at enhancing crop yields and reducing carbon footprints through improved agronomic knowledge and community engagement. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative data analysis from yield measurements and qualitative insights gathered through farmer interviews to evaluate the impact of FFS interventions. Farmers reported a significant increase in crop yields by an average of 25% compared to their pre-intervention levels. Additionally, there were notable reductions in greenhouse gas emissions attributed to the adoption of more efficient farming practices. The implementation of Farmer Field Schools has yielded substantial benefits for smallholder farmers, leading to both increased agricultural productivity and environmental sustainability. Continued support and scaling up of FFS programmes are recommended to further enhance their impact on rural communities in Mozambique.
