Off Grid Rural Life Entreprenuer
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 9 ก.ย. 2013
I live and work in Tiaty, Baringo-one of Kenya’s most remote and arid area, without tarmac roads or electricity. At Tiaty Farm, we're building a sustainable food forest, growing trees (apples, mangoes, oranges, moringa, leucaena, bananas) and vegetables.
Our projects include:
Ponds for Azolla, used to feed our chickens and cows, with plans for fish farming.
Aiming for self-sufficiency through sustainable farming techniques.
We also have side-hustle rural businesses:
-A cyber café
-A welding workshop for essential metal work
-A small fuel station (petrol only)
All using solar energy
Join us as we embrace off-grid living, rural entrepreneurship, and farming in Tiaty!

How Can I get the Azola?
where are you located?
Amigo cómo está. Le habla Salomón desde Colombia. Estamos promoviendo el conocimiento y uso de Azolla como abono y como proteina para alimentar animales. Encuentro su video muy atractivo y muy bien comentado. Podría autorizarme para usarlo como evidencia en un material informativo con formato virtual. Estaré atento y muy agradecido de su aprobación.
Go ahead, glad you find the information useful, will be interested to know the use of azolla as fertilizer also.
@@OffGridRuralLiving muchas gracias amigo. Conoce usted los usos de azolla como fertilizante? Me gustaría saber más de ésto.
The price of mango at 500 is still expensive
Not really in my view, the mango is already well established, buying a 1year old tree at 500bob is better than buying 3 months old seedling at 100bob.
How much is a dam liner of that size 15x30 feet.
light dam liner (0.5mm) is about ksh. 200 per sq metre, 15 by 30 feet is equivalent to 4.5 by 9m, in sq mtrs 4.5*9= 40.5m2 , cost = 40.5*200 = ksh 8100, if your pond is of 15 by 30feet you will have to buy a larger dam liner of about 6m by 12m which will cost around ksh. 9600.

Hello i need the azola seed 3 kg am in Cameroon at west region
Hello, we are currently not exporting, hopefully we will some day
Good video, thank you for sharing your knowledge! What are you using the Azolla for? And how much Azolla can be harvested a day from a pond this size?
Thanks and good question, I have started feeding my few local chicken by mixing with maize jam (azolla as protein with vitamins and maize carbohydrates). I hope to start harvesting 15-20kg daily in two weeks time and start mixing with dairy meal to feed my two cows. I also want to bring in fish to my large pond and feed them using azolla. the plans are many watch my coming videos.
This is great and encouraging❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Thank you, next food forest video coming we've added over 20 crops
All the best, 1k ni expensive, hope they grow in hot areas
Thanks Moses, doing our best
