Reviving her poultry farm
Stronger Women, Stronger Nations Program · Gar · Gar20
I was into poultry farming, but my birds were dying one by one from fluids and other diseases. As a result of this program, I was able to learn more about poultry with the help of my vocational trainer. The chickens have reproduced and my compound is full of them. I intend to sell some of them during the festive period to buy a goat and add to the one given to me.
