The Bio and Emerging Technology Institute (BETin) has successfully concluded a intensive, two-day Training of Trainers (ToT) program dedicated to advancing composting technologies, biochar production, and organic soil fertility management.
Held from May 8-9, 2026, at the Addis Amba Hotel in Bahirdar, the initiative marks a critical step forward in addressing Ethiopia’s current fertilizer shortages while accelerating the transition toward environmentally sustainable farming practices.

The high impact program convened a diverse cohort of experts, researchers, educators, and agricultural practitioners who are tasked with cascading these advanced methodologies and leading practical field demonstrations across the Amhara region.

Key participating institutions included the Amhara Region Agricultural Research Institute, the Amhara Region Bureau of Agriculture, the Bahir Dar City Administration Agriculture Office, and the Bahir Dar City Administration Cleaning, Beautification and Parks Office. The event also drew critical stakeholders from the Amhara Region Environmental Protection Authority, Bahir Dar Polytechnic College, the Bahir Dar Soil Research and Fertility Improvement Center, and Bahir Dar University, alongside various local enterprises and development partners.

Demonstrating strong institutional backing, the training featured active participation from prominent academic and regional leaders, including Dr. Amare Bitew, Director of the Bahirdar University Beautification Office, and Dr. Silesh Andualem, Deputy Director of the Bahirdar University Biotechnology Institute.

The comprehensive curriculum balanced rigorous theoretical coursework with immersive, hands-on field applications. Participants engaged in specialized modules covering windrow composting, vermicomposting, biochar-based organic fertilizer production, and the technical operation of composting machinery. Additionally, the sessions focused on the downstream commercialization process, including compost processing, packaging, and marketing, integrated within a broader framework of urban waste management systems.

To ground the theoretical concepts, practical demonstrations and field visits were conducted at several strategic locations throughout the city.

These included the Bahirdar University School of Law, the Institute of Soil Administration, and the Bahir Dar Soil Research and Fertility Improvement Center. Participants also visited an active composting site near the Bahirdar textile factory, currently managed by the Bahirdar University Biotechnology Institute.

The core mission of the program rests on three strategic pillars: accelerating the adoption of affordable, locally adaptable composting technologies; restoring soil health through organic resources; and significantly reducing national reliance on costly imported chemical fertilizers.

Building on the success of this initial program, BETin has announced plans to roll out cluster based regional trainings, localized field demonstrations, and extensive community awareness campaigns.

By equipping farmers, extension workers, and local communities with the practical skills needed to manufacture high-quality organic fertilizers locally, the initiative is poised to foster a more resilient, self-reliant, and productive agricultural ecosystem in Ethiopia.
