Our project partner has already initiated work in this community and has established a significant number of local farmer-owned and managed cooperatives. The farmers are being trained with programs that promote soil health with natural and sustainable farming practices, provide financial literacy, diversification into animal husbandry, create micro-credit enterprises with monthly savings targets, and are given access to quality seeds and fertilizers. The farmers are also taught how to access subsidised Government schemes.
This project will expand the number of cooperatives and strengthen existing coops, so that more farmers improve their livelihoods through sustainable and informed farming practices.
Please note that all donations are processed by Wycliffe Bible Translators Australia. If we receive extra funds, this will go towards next year’s target.
