We will provide goats, supply of vitamins and medicines and forage starter seeds for 700 poor women farmers so that they are able to start their goat-raising livelihood for their income, nutrition and well-being. The goats are easy to raise, does not require large investment as they eat only grasses and is always highly demanded in the market especially with the swine disease attacking swine industry. Raising goats have the potential to improve the well-being of women.
Challenge
Women farmers at a great disadvantage with the problems of climate change, poor soil condition and the still rampaging Coronavirus pandemic in rural villages. There is a need to find alternative sources of income since traditional ones are no longer reliable. The goal is to provide several income sources rather than be dependent on one source. In this way sustainability is assured.
Long-Term Impact
Times are changing and with climate change and the advent of diseases, the need to improve the incomes and nutrition of families is imperative. There is an urgency to equip farmers especially women with several sources of income in order to improve their situation in life.
