Pitch

A farm where domestic biogas technology and sustainable agriculture is practiced and the population is trained on the above subjects


Description

Summary

Creating a center for the promotion of biogas technology and sustainable agriculture  will help train and impact the population on how to recycle their organic waste for the production of cooking gas and organic manure. Training on sustainable agriculture at the sute will improve the knowledge of trainees on simple and modern agricultural methods. 

Biogas implementation will improve waste management, reduced Co2 emissions,  improve sanitation,  provide organic manure, reduce deforestation,  improve health and employment  while sustainable agriculture will increase food production, increased healthy food consumption, reduce soil pollution, reduce diseases and increased lifespan.

Generally, poverty and climate change will be reduced 

 


Is this proposal for a practice or a project?

Not sure


What actions do you propose?

The center will provide practical lessons on biogas technology and sustainable agriculture to the population, students on internship and accompany them towards application. The recycling of organic wastewill directly reduce Co2 emissions and provide cooking fuel and organic manure to improve farm yield. Sustainable agriculture practice will increased food production and famine 


Who will take these actions?

Non-governmental groups,  Common Initiative Groups and Enterprises.  In Cameroon We ( RRECAM ) started in May 2019 setting-up this project and it's producing good results. This has created huge awareness and the population is will and ready to partake and implement the technology in households and Communities
