Final technical report : innovations for terrace farmers in Nepal and testing of private sector scaling up using sustainable agriculture kits and stall-based franchises

The project tested a sustainable agriculture kit (SAK) scale-up model that comprised seed packages, tools and agronomic innovations to reduce female drudgery, help increase crop production/income, and/or enhance environmental sustainability for hillside terrace farm households in Nepal. This is a detailed report of products, practices, outputs, uptake and outcomes of the project which has to date reached 60,288 households (271,296 people directly or indirectly). Different subsets of the SAK products/methodologies are transferrable to the world’s 400 million subsistence farmer households, especially towards improving livelihoods of women and girls.Global Affairs Canada (GAC
