Dr. Mrs. Agada, an alumina of the NAPP scholars program delivered the training. Her students, who had participated in an earlier soil sample collection activity on the soil productivity index (SPI) rating project delivered by NAPP, served as training assistants. That SPI rating project covered seven (7) Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Benue State in fulfillment of NAPP’s motto “Train one to Train others”.
