Reducing Wildlife Incursion on Forest Edges
มุมมอง 84ปีที่แล้ว
Session: Crop-raiding by elephants can devastate small farmers, leading to food insecurity, lost opportunity costs, and even death, as well as negative attitudes towards elephants, but finding effective and inexpensive solutions, has proven extremely difficult. Beehive fences surrounding crops fields with beehives attached to fence posts and strung together with wires may serve as a humane and ...
Factors Affecting Greater Uptake of CA in East Africa - the CA Plus Model
มุมมอง 62ปีที่แล้ว
Session: Conservation Agriculture (CA) provides clear soil conservation benefits, but meta-analyses from across sub-Saharan Africa indicate that CA on its own only provides a small increase in yields - not enough for most farmers to overcome food insecurity in the short term. Taking a more holistic food systems approach to CA adoption, however, can result in much more significant increases in p...

    Great stuff! Adding the bottles is an interesting idea. Is there any concern on the bottles leaching chemicals or microplastics into the soil as they break down? Love the work you guys are doing!

      Hi @JumpingSpider37 Thanks for your question! Potential toxicity from plastics is a challenging question. Much of the available research concerns plastics in landfills or bits of plastic that end up in compost piles or sludge. There is a concern for thin plastic, like the plastic used to cover raised beds in commercial vegetable production. It's difficult to get it all out of the field and there have been studies showing that what's left in fields breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces with negative effects on soil life. Most of the concerns in the literature for plastic bottles/containers are based on buildup in landfills and what happens when it eventually starts breaking down. In light of these considerations, a few points that come to mind are: • Take paper labeling and underlying sticky components off water bottles before putting them in tires. This prevents any possibility of metals/toxins from inks and glues from being released. • Keep plastic bottles covered. Bury them in the soil or cover them with mulch. Avoid having water bottles exposed to the sun for indefinite periods. This keeps plastic from becoming brittle due to UV light, breaking up, becoming part of the soil, and eventually releasing harmful chemicals. If there is a concern, maybe change out the bottles occasionally instead of keeping the same bottles in the containers year after year. • Explore organic options for lightweight gardens such as corn cobs, larger twigs, or pine cones.

    5:42 objetivo Incrementar economia y mejorar nutricion. Proyecto inicial 100 chickens con 487 en 5 sectores de un distrito de 4k habitantes. Capacitatcion 3 dias de practica, luego deben pasar por un examen practico para que sean aceptados y se les entrega todo. Que incluye todo. Luego prestamos de 14% de interes para sustentas los gastos posteriores. Entrenaron a un grupo de personas tecnicas para soporte presencial, whastapp. Los pollos son comprados garantizados. 3 x 3 per meter. 0.8 feet per chicken. Harvest 42 - 49 days old for , then 3 weeks period of biosecuity time. Around 5 flocks per year.. 33:57 Coop desing. Ross 308, then hunnards , cobb 500. Budget $600 for Coops. Payback in 3 years for the first ones. But at beggining the keep all the profits until the manage to earn more than flock (30-40 ugadass) in monthly basis. That extra they made the payment. 511 capacitados , se fueron 24 (algunos se mudaron, algunos tuvieron que sacarlos luego de 3 strikes por no mantener vacio el coop durante las 3 semanas de bioseguridad). La comida es proporcionada por ellos, para asegurar una alta nutricion. This session will feature findings and impacts from a public-private partnership that has trained and equipped smallholders in rural northern Rwanda in modern broiler chicken production. The session will highlight the importance of adopting livelihood approaches that increase incomes and improve nutritional outcomes for smallholder households in resource-limited settings.
