We cooperate with a group of farmers in the region of Chinandega, with the goal to develop and execute agricultural activities to improve the food safety and the awareness about healthy nutrition among the population of Chinandega.

Organic cultivation

We collaborate with 10 organic farmers with small acreages around Chinandega, El Ensayo (south), El Piloto (north), El Manzano (west) and La Bolsa (east). On a total size of 19 acres they are cultivating organic corn, beans and rice and plant tropical flowers.

Trainings and further education

The members of our Group participate in regular trainings on topics like the usage of alternative equipment, ideas, products and techniques to handle with problems like plagues or droughts in a better way. Our objective is to support the farmers on their way to sustainability and independence.

Food safety

Furthermore we work with 50 small and mean conventional agricultural farms to ensure the supply of basic food like corn and rice for the population of Chinandega, especially children and pregnant women. These 50 farmers use conventional and appropriate techniques to seed basic grains like corn, beans and rice and sell them in Chinandega.
