The study was on skills training for selected rural women farmers who engage in the sale of water-melon in the use of the seed in making jewellery accessories to serve as additional income to cater for the losses they encounter on breakages during transportation and perish. The pilot project which focused on the harvesting and processing of Guinea corn straw and water-melon seeds into useable materials, was aimed at equipping participants on dye application, drilling and threading, varnishing, assemblage and packaging into finished product. The study was experimental in nature, with a focal resource person as the principal demonstrator. The participants at the end of the exercise, were able to design and produce fashionable accessories including necklace, hand bangles, earrings and value-added sandals. It was recommended for the replication of the training to cover other dealers.
