Choose a topic of your own and do a radio documentary for 10 minutes.

Speak about development in


your community. In Your documentary interview one expert and community member about the type of
development you have chosen.

Here’s a 10-minute radio documentary script focusing on “Sustainable Agriculture Development in My


Community.” It includes interviews with an expert and a community member to highlight local efforts
and challenges.

Opening (1 minute)

Narrator (calm, engaging tone):

Welcome to Voices of Progress, your trusted program for stories that matter in our community. Today,
we delve into the world of sustainable agriculture — a growing movement transforming our local farms
and empowering families. But what exactly does sustainable agriculture mean for us, and how are we
making strides toward food security and environmental conservation? Stay tuned.

Introduction to the Topic (1 minute)

Narrator:

Sustainable agriculture focuses on producing food in ways that respect our environment, improve
farmers’ livelihoods, and ensure future generations can thrive. In our community, small-scale farmers
have begun adopting innovative methods to improve crop yields while preserving soil and water
resources. But this journey isn’t without its challenges.

To explore this topic, I spoke with two individuals: Mr. Elijah Mutai, an agronomist with over a decade of
experience, and Mary Njoroge, a farmer who has embraced these changes firsthand.

Interview with the Expert (3 minutes)

Narrator:

Let’s hear from Mr. Elijah Mutai, an agronomist working with local farmers.
Narrator (interview setting):

Mr. Mutai, what exactly is sustainable agriculture, and why is it important for our community?

Mr. Mutai:

Sustainable agriculture is about balance — producing enough food to meet our needs while protecting
our natural resources. In this community, we’ve seen the effects of over-reliance on synthetic fertilizers
and poor farming practices. Yields were dropping, and soil fertility was declining. Sustainable practices,
like crop rotation, organic composting, and water-efficient irrigation, are helping to reverse this trend.

Narrator:

What has been the biggest challenge in promoting these practices?

Mr. Mutai:

The biggest challenge is changing mindsets. Many farmers are used to conventional methods and are
skeptical of new ideas. Education is key. Through workshops and demonstrations, we’ve shown that
these methods not only improve yields but also reduce costs in the long term.

Narrator:

And how are local farmers responding?

Mr. Mutai:

We’re seeing great progress. About 30% of farmers here now use organic fertilizers, and many are
planting drought-resistant crops. It’s a step in the right direction, but there’s still much to do.

Interview with the Community Member (3 minutes)

Narrator:
Next, I visited Mary Njoroge, a small-scale farmer who adopted sustainable farming methods two years
ago.

Narrator (interview setting):

Mary, can you tell us about your experience with sustainable agriculture?

Mary Njoroge:

At first, I was hesitant. My family has farmed the same way for generations. But after attending a
workshop, I decided to try. I started by composting kitchen waste to make fertilizer and planting
legumes to enrich the soil. Within a year, my maize yield doubled!

Narrator:

That’s impressive! What has been the biggest benefit for you?

Mary Njoroge:

It’s the savings. I no longer spend so much on chemical fertilizers, and my soil is healthier. Plus, the food
tastes better, and my customers notice the difference.

Narrator:

What challenges have you faced?

Mary Njoroge:

Weather is unpredictable. Last year, the rains came late, and some crops failed. But with drought-
resistant seeds and water-saving techniques like mulching, I’m learning to adapt.

Closing Remarks (2 minutes)

Narrator:
From Mr. Mutai’s expertise to Mary’s inspiring journey, it’s clear that sustainable agriculture holds great
promise for our community. But the road ahead requires collaboration, education, and resilience.

As we strive for development, let’s remember that progress doesn’t mean sacrificing our environment. It
means creating a future where farmers thrive, families are nourished, and the land remains fertile for
generations.

Thank you for tuning in to Voices of Progress. Until next time, this is [Your Name], reminding you to
nurture the roots of change in your own way.

Closing Music/Outro (1 minute)

(Soft, hopeful instrumental music fades in.)

Narrator:

You’ve been listening to Voices of Progress on [Radio Station Name]. Stay informed, stay inspired.
Goodbye!

(Outro music fades out.)
