In its relentless endeavor to elevate the technical capacity of avocado farms, cooperatives, unions and regional public sector agricultural experts and extension workers, EHPEA trained more than 800 farm agronomists, production managers, post harvest experts and extension workers on “Post Harvest Handling of Avocado.”

The trainees were drawn from Sidama and South Ethiopia Regional States.

Capacity building is an important element to have transformation in the avocado value chain.

It is worth to pay credit for the contribution of MASHAV project in introducing and availing planting material for Ethiopia’s avocado production and global market integration. Now, we need to scale up the best and sustainable practices.

THE FUTURE IS HORTICULTURE for Ethiopia.
