@begottensun The business was based too much on copy and paste. No differentiation and originality. Though I heard they opened in Malawi or Zambia. And of course Chicken Inn came down on them hard literally and otherwise.
The licence for hemp in Zimbabwe is US$200, not US$50 000, what’s stopping from focusing on that enterprise alone?
Zimbabwe has so far exported over 8 000 tonnes of #hemp, primarily to Poland, Switzerland, and Germany, demonstrating a growing international market for the commodity
6 of our farmers are currently doing medicinal hemp, 3 of them are processing locally, and selling the oil..
There are a bit of some regulations that have to be followed, but it's not as complicated as what you may imagine,
It all starts with land use and management planning!
Let's talk about your next big project!

When I was a kid, my uncle had a strange way of teaching us lessons.
One day, he looked at me and said, “Go bring me a chicken from the neighbor’s farm, or I’ll make you regret it!”
I was scared and confused, but I didn’t want to upset him. So, I ran off to the neighbor’s house.
Generosity requires wisdom. Set boundaries, use discretion, and ensure your giving builds and doesn't drain. Charity with moderation protects both you and your priorities.

“OKONJO-WAHALA”
(The Woman With Many Firsts)
She and her six siblings were raised by her grandmother whilst their parents were studying in Europe on scholarship.
By the time she was 9, she had learned to cook, fetch firewood, and manage the household.
The civil war in 1967 disrupted her education and exposed her to difficult times as she was eating one meal a day, saw children dying around her, and slept on the mud floor, so she had to learn how to live “economically” even as a kid.

Factors cited by goat farmers as the constraints in goat production include: diseases, feed, water, theft, heat stress, market, transport, veterinary services, insufficient funds, lack of extension services and lack of commercial breeds.
Goats contribute significantly to the livelihoods of smallholder farmers in Zimbabwe. 6 Over 97% of the 4.7 million goats in Zimbabwe are found in the smallholder farming sector. Most of the smallholder farmers live in agro-ecological regions IV and V, which have poor rainfall.

@MaminiminiObert@ndakaripa We have a serious responsibility to maintain our indigenous genetics. R&D needs to be invested into this area. Crossing after all is indeed not a silver bullet.
The replacement & indiscriminate crossbreeding of indigenous goats may cause genetic erosion (loss of genetic diversity & reduction of adaptive value) & opportunities for efficient utilisation of the existing goat’s genetic resources for improvement of livelihood may be missed.
