Financial Literacy for Farmers in the Time of Pandemic

The Financial Literacy for Farmers in Pandemic Days project aims to help local farmers learn about financial literacy and access to resources. It supports them in making better financial decisions through using a budget book and mentor guidance, helping them get through the pandemic with minimal economic harm.

1. Our farmers are prepared for the changing economic market conditions during the pandemic,
2. Our farmers have knowledge and skills in budget implementation, spending plan, income-expenditure balance, savings and debt management,
3. Our farmers have the ability to evaluate financial offers offered by banks and other financial institutions / individuals in detail and make the right decisions,
4. The young people from their own localities who will support farmers have been supported to increase their knowledge levels on financial literacy and access, and to have effective mentoring skills and experience.
