RWAYDAVO is implementing a goat farming project in Burega village, Rwanda. The community came together and identified the following as needs they wanted to address: lack of fertile soil, lack of sources of manure production, low harvest yields, malnutrition and lack of income-generating activities to support agriculture. They decided that goat farming will help them to address each of these community priorities. RWAYDAVO plan to provide goats to 200 families who are in critical need of support.
This project will address the problems of food insecurity, limited awareness to better farming methods, declining soil fertility, poor nutrition among mothers and thier children, Limited accessibility to improved planting materials ,the high poverty levels. Goat farming will help them to address each of these community priorities. The goat kids will be distributed to others in the community to impact more households' agricultural yields and income.
Agriculture and goats have a symbiotic relationship that can contribute to sustainable farming through maintained soil fertility. In the short run, this project will improve food supply, and maintain soil fertility while in the medium term it will set precedence and unveil the inert potentials from carefully selected beneficiaries to ensure sustained incomes and recovery from the vicious circle of poverty
The long term impact will improve standard of living and recognition of indigenous people role and contribution in poverty reducing efforts in the community. The project will promote relationships between Local autonomous civil society organizations and the government as we shall be contributing to government effort and programmes of prosperity for all.
