               mango production of the College of Agriculture and Forestry had adopted the technology
               in some portions of their plantation to produce products during off season. Accordingly,
               the practice of off season production creates additional opportunity to farm laborers and
               increase income for the farmers.
                       Moreover, farmer adopters on the climate change resilient demo farms improved
               physical condition of their farms and increase also their income. The knowledge being
               imparted  to  the  participants  were  applied  to  their  own  farms.  Challenges  were
               encountered during establishment that’s why continuous monitoring and assistance were
               extended to the farmers.
