Drilling of solar-powered borehole to promote Small scale irrigated vegetable growing, processing, and improved rearing of village chickens for food security and increased incomes at the household level.
The project activities have been and are still being implemented as planned though with some highlighted challenges. The mixed membership groups are working to sustain the continuity of the project and ensure that the chicken project succeeds. The women’s project is trying to catch up with the lost time in terms of water availability and is currently busy preparing the land, establishing a vegetable nursery, and directly planting some of the vegetables such as okra and pumpkin leaves. There is good germination recorded so far for all vegetables planted.
