Poultry management: 60 community members benefitted from poultry management training. This training improved the care of 100 chickens resulting in the centres harvesting on average 22 eggs per day by the end of the project. The CBCC’s are using their profits from the chickens to support further income generating activities such as sweet potato, soya bean and maize production.
Agriculture training: ActionAid provided climate resilient agriculture training to 120 community members in 2019 and provided 3 CBCC’s with soya bean seed and 50 bundles of sweet potato vines for farming. By 2020, the CBCC’s harvested their product and used the profits to support maintenance at the CBCC.
Beekeeping: In 2019, 30 beehives were established in Ntchisi forest. By June 2020, the CCBCC’s harvested their first load of honey for distribution to local supermarkets. These profits support the CBCC’s in further income generating activities and maintenance of the CBCC.
