Our Work in Myanmar

  • Active in Myanmar since 2012; over 87,000 farmers trained since 2015.
  • We currently train smallholder farmers on sustainable vegetable production techniques in Kayin, Magwe, Mon, Naypyitaw, Rakhine, and Shan states.
  • We provide intensive, hands-on training in the field, while increasing farmers’ access to information through digital tools like our VeggieTap app and our online Pesticide Selection Tool.
  • See our 2022 impact, learn about our projects, or click on the map to explore our farmers’ demonstration farms.
