Executive Summary
CABI CWA with the financial assistance of World Bank & Extension Department Sindh conducted the Refresher Course for IPM Facilitators on Chilli, Okra, Cotton crops and non-formal education (NFE), Group dynamic (DG) and quality assurance (QA) on Farmer Field School approach during the month of April 2013 in their respective districts. The training was attended by participants from Department of Agriculture Extension staff, NGO workers and selected progressive farmers. During three days’ workshops, the already developed module 1 for the respective crops and topics were covered through participatory approach with the participants mainly working in groups using power point presentations and practical in the field. Plenary feedback sessions allowed time for further discussions of points raised and sharing of ideas amongst participants. Evaluation of the workshop by participants was positive.
Introduction
The Refresher Course for IPM Facilitators has been developed for the extended period of the World Bank financed project “Integrated pest management productivity enhancement component of World Bank assisted SOFWM project”. CABI CWA has been remained a premier institute in capacity building of agriculture departments and farming community through its participatory approaches. Therefore, Extension Department Sindh contacted CABI CWA to facilitate and conduct these trainings for their staff who had already been trained previously. This has been jointly prepared by Agriculture Extension Sindh and CABI CWA for capacity building of Agriculture Extension in implementation of IPM through farmer field school (FFS) approaches to achieve sustainability in crops and vegetables production. The aim of this proposed activity was to enhance and refresh the technical and social skills of these facilitators (Trainees) to analyse crop production systems, eventually identifying and adopting the practices most suitable to farming system through FFS approach. The crops included in the program for training of facilitators are cotton, chili, tomato, okra, onion, and rice. Investment in the human capital is one of the most effective means of reducing poverty and promoting sustainable development. Agriculture extension was once known as the application of scientific research and new knowledge to agriculture practices through farmer education. The field of extension now encompasses a wider range of communication and learning activities organized for rural poor by professionals from different disciplines. In many countries, traditional extension is gradually being replaced by more participatory approaches, in which the knowledge and opinion of farmers is considered to be just as important as that of researches and government officials. Participatory approaches involve information-sharing and joint decision making. CABI-CWA is applying participatory approach by establishing Farmer Field Schools (FFS) to enhance tunnel vegetable production and income of the farmers. Field Agriculture Professionals are providing extension services. The professionals have strong technical background but are not conversant with participatory approaches in extension. The CABI-CWA is investing in the capacity building of Agriculture Field Professionals. The designed training will not only help farmers and field professionals to develop understanding of participatory approaches but also acquire the skill to put these skills into practice. The combined training of educated farmers and field professionals will furnish a forum to develop understanding and build rapport between them. This rapport building will accelerate the efforts to enhance farm production and income. The training will also produce a fleet of helping hands to CABI-CWA in

achieving the targets and objectives of the project. The services of this fleet will also be an advantage to train other professionals and farmers.

Refreshment for the Training Participants
During the workshops, morning and evening tea along with cookies and lunch box was provided to the participants.
Training Participants
It is observed that Department of Agriculture Extension in addition to its regular extension staff also invite staff form different local NGO’s + local farmers in the refresher training course. It is further noted that some of the trainees have not attended Training of Facilitators (ToF) before. Those trainees require more training time to understand the FFS approach; as such the expert field Facilitator (EFF) has to spend some extra time during discussion and field practical for their better understanding. Above all CABI has to make extra expenses over and above the provided budget on their refreshment.
