Dear Friend,

Warm greetings and thank you very much for your generous support to our project providing goats to poor farming families. We experienced difficulty in sourcing upgraded goats that has the potential in improving the performance of the herd that we are dispersing to farmers. Improvement of goat lines is very important and urgent because native goats produce small offspring and do not produce milk at all. The years of in-breeding has resulted in this phenomenon and there is a need to improve the performance of our goats in order also to improve the benefits that will accrue to farmers. This reporting period we sourced out good upgraded goats and we were able to purchase mixed Saanen breed that is high performer. We will use this goat in order to improve the kids of our females and also improve the general performance of the goat population here.

Again thank you very much for your generosity.

Very sincerely yours,

Cora
