Maseno University’s UPSCALE project team is focused on enhancing awareness of push-pull technology (PPT) across the region. One of the strategies that has been implemented is establishing PPT plots in schools and organizing school field days to engage students, parents, teachers, and local farmers. The main objectives of these events are to educate participants about PPT farming, teach them how to establish PPT plots, highlight the benefits of PPT farming, and distribute PPT learning materials. This initiative has been successfully carried out in two schools so far.
