CRARDPAll schedule activities on – going. Desk officers not on seat to release data. Commercial Agric All schedule activities on – going with synergy on capacity building and technology transfer using appropriate tools worked out with CRADP Fertilizer Voucher 3377.7mt of fertilizers out of a target of 8000mt received and distributed to farmers to date. Constraint – Inadequate supply and late delivery on this critical production input lead to decline in productivity in the crops sub - sector. Input situationAll critical production input available in open market through Agro dealers Fertilizer Supply of the wrong type of fertilizers at the wrong time and at very high cost lead to low adoption of associated technologies and hence low yield and high production cost with attendance consequence on high cost of products. Agro chemicalAvailable in open markets through Agro dealers. MTRM Situation ReportThree out of proposed 12 MTRMs were conducted in 2012, courtesy of NPFS. Technologies discussed and passed for dissemination are; 1.Improved cultural practices in low land rice production. 2.Late maize production technologies. 3.Control of field pest and diseases of low land rice and late maize. 4.Water quality management in home stead fish ponds. 5.Fish feed formulation using locally available materials. 6.Preparation of high cassava flour, cassava pizza, pineapple jam, cassava croquette.
