As the Senior Agricultural Officer, Lauraine is responsible for overseeing the provision of agricultural advisory services at the district level. This involves coordinating the dissemination of information to farmers and other end users. She supervises all subject matter specialists and field extension officers in the district under the Department of Agriculture. Her role is to ensure that those who depend on farming are equipped with the necessary skills to run environmentally friendly yet economically viable agricultural enterprises, ensuring domestic food and nutrition security and improved household incomes.
My work involves interacting with farmers, extension agents, and other key players in the agricultural sector to facilitate the delivery of comprehensive and sustainable farming solutions to those involved.
