Bali Sustainable Profitable Super-Farmer Green Warrior Farming Project Launched Green Warrior Permaculture, an agency consisting of sustainability specialists led by Steve Cran, who is a sustainable community development expert, announced the launch of a Super-Farmer project in Bali. The team offers consultancy and training services, develops viable sustainability strategies, and engages in community development. For more details, please visit: https://greenwarriorpermaculture.wordpress.com The recently launched project aims to help farmers in Bali learn how to engage in sustainable and profitable farming, as Bali’s sustainability is influenced by agricultural stability. Bali’s farmlands are increasingly being replaced by unsustainable tourism developments owing to the poor financial status of farmers. They use traditional farming methods that yield minimal income, driving them to sell land to developers. Through the LEISA (Low External Input Sustainable Agriculture) strategy, Green Warrior Permaculture will teach Bali farmers how to adopt organic farming methods that will enable them to diversify their crops. As a result, their income is expected to increase threefold within 12 months. Farmers participating in the project will be issued tools of superior quality and will receive a supply of non-hybrid seeds required for organic farming. The project also entails giving farmers field academy training on an existing successful Super-Farm. Additionally, farmers will learn about the strategies and techniques that lead to successful organic farming. They will acquire financial resources to facilitate value addition, besides getting a Super-Farmer label to help them sell their produce to large-scale markets. This latest project launch is consistent with Green Warrior Permaculture’s commitment to achieving community development through permaculture aid. By helping communities flourish and become self-sufficient, food security is achieved. Steve Cran, the founder of Green Warrior Permaculture, said, “Permaculture Aid gets real results by helping people restore their community using local resources. They grow their way out of poverty.” Additional information on the Super-Farm project is available at the above-mentioned website. Summary: Green Warrior Permaculture launched a Super-Farm project, a permaculture aid strategy seeking to equip farmers in Bali with knowledge and skills that will enable them to practice sustainable and profitable organic farming.
