TEACHING & TRAINING<br />

Our staff engages in graduate student training at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P)<br />

through its School of Agriculture, Fertilization & Environmental Science (ESAFE), and provide<br />

mentorship opportunities for graduate students coming from agricultural and environmental science<br />

programs across Africa. These young scientists are the future for sustainable agricultural development in<br />

Africa through their developed expertise in advising farmers and industry stakeholders.<br />

In the classroom, young M.Sc. students learn about the principles of improved nutrient management and<br />

fertilizer behavior in African soils. Internship activities provide guidance for literature review studies on<br />

research topics related to their areas of study, as well as field research and farm demonstration opportunities<br />

that develop practical skills and provide valuable interactions with farmers and the research community.<br />
