With support from the FAO, four poultry model farms have been established in Nyaruguru, Ruhango, and Nyanza districts, benefiting 41 dedicated youth and 186 youth and women who received 5,000 chickens with feed for two months. All beneficiaries have been trained by FAO experts, and covered poultry farming and other business-related subjects such as entrepreneurship and use of technology in poultry farming, poultry products marketing, and market linkage, budget development and business planning, and use of resources in modern poultry farming to maximise profits to start businesses and achieve self-reliance.
