Growing your own food - South Sudan
To mitigate the impact of COVID, FAO with funding from USAID is enhancing the vegetable production of urban farmers to help them grow their own healthy food for home consumption and market sale. The booklet serves as a guide to set up a vegetable home garden. There are many advantages to developing a Home Vegetable Garden: • Alleviates pressure on food security. • Contains less pesticides than conventional agriculture. • Provides families and nearby urban residents with nutritious food. • Utilizes little space which would otherwise remain unproductive. • The growing season is not restricted by unpredictable weather conditions. • Growing your own vegetables is environmentally friendly
