The state of Lesotho's agricultural economy is currently in shambles and requires a transition to sustainable development. The authors consider the change of mindset of different stakeholders in rural areas as well as adaptation of new technologies such as conservation agriculture (CA) as an important mechanism for the transition to sustainable agriculture. On the basis of case example in Kotsonkoaneng, the study demonstrated how changing of the mindset and the acceptance of improved farming practices can increase yields and protect the environment. Bridging the gap between research and extension with respect to CA demonstrations, field days and farmer trainings were held. |
