After overcoming a few shipping troubles, the rewards were finally delivered to the Nigerian group awarded in the first Naturethon initiative, and the distribution process of the water bottles to farmers took place. The Naturethon Champion Terhile Dominic Uchi organised an informal but significant ceremony, sharing with the Naturethon team a few pictures and videos of it.

The group’s submission reflects on the use of regenerative agriculture, particularly on the benefits of nitrogen-fixing crops, such as legumes, in crop rotations. When planted, these crops naturally enhance soil fertility by converting atmospheric nitrogen into a form that plants can use. This project suggests replacing or minimizing the need for synthetic fertilizers, bringing not only environmental benefits but also economic advantages for the farmers, who can rely on more sustainable yields and lower production costs.

Good luck to Dominic and his group and thanks for participating in the Naturethon intitiative!
