About this project
P. O'Donovan from HUDERES is responsible for this project
HUDERES is implementing an agri-business project in Kagutu, Ihanda, Kamagambo, Kiruruma and Ndama villages, Katwe villages in Karagwe District, Tanzania.. The activities which has been implemented are:-
- Formation and identification of farmers groups
- Selection and training of internal facilitators
- Training of groups on commercial farming
The total of 40 groups with 1,200 small holder farmers were supported. During the training, it was observed that soil productivity has fallen and soil fertility is depleting. This has been caused by excessive use of scarce land available to farmers.
Unfortunately the agri-business project which comes to an end this month (July) 2015, did not cover an aspect of soil fertility improvement which is an important aspect of improving the income of farmers and livelihood of the community. This projects aims to rectify the situation through training farmers in production and application of animal manure in farming.
Goals:
- Distribute 100 dairy goat to 20 groups by mid 2016.
- Train 600 small holder farmers on domestic animal keeping and application of animal manure in farming by Dec 2016.
- Revolve the offspring to other 600 farmers by Dec 2018 at the rate of 200 goats annual
- Improve family nutrition and increase milk intake to at least 400 people annually
- Improve soil fertility and increase quantity of agricultural produce by the small holder farmers
