Describing Carbon Sequestration • Adoption of Sustainable Agricultural Land Management technologies by farmers will influence increased carbon sequestration and trigger soil fertility for increased food productivity. • Adaptation to climate change • Enhanced soil carbon stock conserve soil and reduce chances of soil being depleted • The language used is both traditional and scientific • The tools used to communicate the meaning of carbon sequestration include discussions, posters, drawings, use of films and expert explanation • There has been a communication challenge on revenue distribution • Use of group leaders and community resource persons explanation support farmer understanding.
