Digital Platforms in Agricultural Training: A Case Study of Female Farmers in Central Kenya

Digital platforms have become integral in modern agricultural training, offering scalable solutions for education and information dissemination. A mixed-methods approach was employed, including pre- and post-workshop surveys (n=150) and focus group discussions to assess learning outcomes and farmer engagement. Female participants reported a significant improvement in knowledge about crop management (p<0.001), with 82% indicating enhanced understanding of best practices after the training. The integration of digital platforms significantly improved female farmers' agricultural knowledge, leading to more informed decision-making and potentially higher yields. Future research should explore long-term impacts and scalability of these digital interventions across different regions in Kenya.
