Gagasi FM: Your Urban Agriculture Radio Guide

Ever wish you could learn about urban farming while commuting? Meet Gagasi FM – your go-to radio show for all things urban agriculture across Africa. We’ve packed it with the stories you need to grow your city garden or farm, right from your kitchen or car.

Why Gagasi FM Stands Out

Unlike other shows, Gagasi FM dives deep into what matters most to urban farmers. Take Walsall’s economy story: 33% of local kids in poverty, rising costs, and a new council plan. We break it down so you can apply those tips to your own setup. Plus, we share real-time updates on the best crops for your climate, like the sweet potatoes thriving in Nairobi’s new rooftop farms. You’ll hear from farmers like Amina in Accra, who started growing microgreens in her apartment and now supplies local cafes. She’ll share her exact soil mix and how she uses simple tools to save time. It’s practical stuff you can try this week – not just theory.

Your Top 3 Ways to Use Gagasi FM

First, listen while you prep dinner. Each episode is 20 minutes – perfect for busy weeks. We’ve got a new episode every Tuesday, so you’ll never miss a tip. Second, follow along with our free checklist: ‘5 Steps to a Thriving Balcony Garden’ (downloadable on our website). Third, join our listener group on WhatsApp for live Q&As with our farming experts. Last month, listeners got a sneak peek on using recycled containers for vertical farming – and one listener, Tunde from Lagos, saw his yields jump 40%! We also cover big trends you won’t find elsewhere. Like how the ‘Privateer 161’ mountain bike is inspiring urban farmers to move produce faster across markets. Or how the new ‘Nnamdi Kanu’ arrest in Kenya is shaping food trade routes. You’ll leave each episode with one actionable idea. Gagasi FM isn’t just news – it’s your farming partner. So grab your headphones, tune in, and start growing smarter today.
