Community Livelihood Project

Community Livelihood Project Community Livelihood Project hinges on the background that there is a relationship between nutrition and disability.
Many disabilities/impairments such as Blindness, Hydrocephrous, Spinabafida, among others, have a connection with malnutrition. Initiatives like community vegetable gardening campaigns have been started in Wakiso District to tap the potential of Floric acid which encourages mothers and young girls to eat rich vegetables and fruits as a means to reduce on the incidences of Hydrocephrous and Spina

Project uses social learning approaches and climate-smart agriculture as entry points to restore... The enroached Kiha water catchment in Uganda is in need of several sustainable interventions. A CCAFS-supported project is testing social learning approaches combined with climate-smart agriculture to turn things around.

All the past models of agricultural development were mostly effective in high potential production zones and focus was primarily on increasing productivity rather than resilience. Its so sad that climate change was not put into the equation by then.

Very interesting at the same time worrying findings which proprietors and supporters will never accept find it; http://www.enveurope.com/content/26/1/14
Republished study: long-term toxicity of a Roundup herbicide and a Roundup-tolerant genetically... The health effects of a Roundup-tolerant NK603 genetically modified (GM) maize (from 11% in the diet), cultivated with or without Roundup application and Roundup alone (from 0.1 ppb of the full pesticide containing glyphosate and adjuvants) in drinking water, were evaluated for 2 years in rats.

Stop selling fake seeds to our farmers. You have made our grass root communities vulnerable to seed insecurity
Who can join us physically and financially, we are planting 50 tree ovacados at a primary school in our project "Green talk"
Did U know that crushed egg shells add valuable nutrients to soil. They contain Calcium which is key essential for cell growth in all plants and especially important for fast growing plants because they quickly deplete the surrounding soil of calcium.
Instead of throwing egg shells away, put them in the bottom of plant pots instead of stones. Iam sure you will not miss this great source of nutrition. In mid 2011, we checked soil pH at 7-8 for my friend and now we decided to apply egg shells to moderate this pH. We found out early this week a pH of 6-6.5 at all his backyard garden boundary. Also when it comes to cabbage, this mineral deters, snails, slugs and cutworms from affecting the plant and to tomato, it help prevent blossom end rot. What a cheap and cost effective technology for small scale farmers? Regardless urban or rural farmer?
For many small scale farmers in my community the cost of fertilizer per cropping season can be many times larger than their net farm income for any season.But most worrying soils are being mined of nutrients at an alarming rate because traditional soil fertility management practices are no longer adequate due to population growth and land pressure. This year we gonna venture more in organic soil management methods.
