Compost making and water conservation projects

The initial JB project for training local farmers in compost making, soil & water preservation has been completed.

The DAO visited 14 villages to carry our sensitisation meetings and training to those farmers who requested it.

The JB have experienced some frustration with the project because the local government officers from the DAO have not accounted for their spending properly and seem to have used all the money for fuel benefits, contrary to the agreed budget and contract with the JB.

The JB have agreed to postpone any further projects with the help of this department and are trying to find ways of finding honest technical support within the local community.
