What is LEISA?

LEISA is the abbreviation of 'Low External Input Sustainable Agriculture'. LEISA refers to viable small scale farming, which is a major part of rural livelihoods and thus contributes significantly to developing economies. LEISA is about finding technical and social options open to farmers who seek to improve productivity and income in an ecologically sound way. LEISA is about optimal use of local resources and natural processes and, if necessary, safe and efficient use of external inputs. Read more.
