Revitalization of the farm
Program leader: Drew Harvey Nyadire Mission has 3,000 acres of land and at one time operated a highly productive farm. Although the farm has been virtually idle for many years, it has great potential. TNC began its support in 2011 by helping to repair equipment, providing irrigation for a small garden plot, provision of a truck, training, and other beginning items. The farm now operates a butchery that provides beef to other departments, produces and sells vegetables to the community, and operates a small poultry operation. In the longer term, the extensive farm property could be irrigated and brought into crop production that would generate significant funds. Revenue from the farm could provide a strong financial base and move Nyadire toward a self-supporting and sustainable future. |
