AKC Advisory ICIMOD

Nepalese farmers have limited access to agricultural extension services and lack the support they need to identify and address crop issues autonomously. Effective agricultural advisory services are vital to address the needs of farmers, help them with decision making and build resilience to cope with climate shocks and environmental change. ICIMOD’s Climate Services Initiative collaborated with the Agriculture Knowledge Centre (AKC) in Chitwan to further enrich advisories, make them more relevant to farmers’ needs and deliver them in a timely manner.
