ABITRSUST: KASESE KAMWENGE IBANDA (KKI) PROJECT
This project is a partnership with [ABITRUST] to increase volume and quality of soya bean and ground nuts production in Kasese, Kamwenge and Ibanda. Using Farmer Field Methodologies (FFS), Reco has established demo farms where farmers are trained in effective agricultural practices such as planting, harvesting, storing and marketing. Farmers have also been encouraged to utilise micro financing opportunities and supported in setting up of Saving and Loan Schemes under Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLA).
The NuLife project was focused on connecting HIV positive clients with critical services while simultaneously improving service delivery, supporting the local food production industry, and providing sustainable livelihood opportunities for individual farmers. These farmers produced raw material inputs for RUTAFA, a locally produced ready-to-use therapeutic food used in the treatment of severe acute malnutrition in vulnerable populations including PLHIV.
