Farmer-to-farmer extension (F2FE) offers great promise for effectively scaling up climate smart agriculture (CSA). F2FE is “the provision of training by farmers to farmers, often through the creation of a structure of farmer promoters and farmer-trainers” (Scarborough et al., 1997). In this contribution, we use the term “farmer-trainer” as a generic term for farmers involved in farmer-to-farmer extension, though we recognize that different labels (e.g. lead farmer, community knowledge worker) often have implications for the exact roles and tasks of the farmers involved.
