Promoting Natural Farming Practices in Bangladesh

BEDS supported 20 Sheep, 100 chicken and 100 ducks to improve their economic situation during Covid-19. The beneficiary of livestock are taking cake of the livestock. They are providing feed and regularly monitoring the livestock. They are getting eggs from chicken and ducks. Some of them sell eggs and getting monetary benefit. Others are rearing chickens and ducks and the number of livestock increasing day by day. They also sell the ducks and chickens for meat and getting economic support. A new scope for income has been developed and their family income has increased.

There are many more marginal villagers live in the Sundarbans coastal region of Bangladesh, who needs the same support.People who depend on the forest resources fall in huge risk as Bangladesh government has issued strict laws on forest resource harvesting. Those people belong to an extremely poor socio economic condition. So, in pandemic situation, they require instant support. Livestock can be a great medium for them to survive. BEDS is currently trying to raise fund from GlobalGiving platform in order to help those marginal people. 

We would like to thank all our donors for being so kind to us so far. We are requesting all our kind donors to start monthly recurring donation. For recurring donation, please visit the following link;
