Bulawayo – A recent poultry production training workshop, which was organised by ZDDT, has equipped farmers with skills to produce quality broilers for the surrounding market.
Ten committee members from Sizinda nutritional garden, gathered on site at the poultry sheds adjacent to their garden plots and undertook basic training in all aspects of poultry husbandry that is set add value to their already flourishing vegetable allotments.
A Bulawayo based company, supplying day old chicks and feed to the market, Sunset Chicken Feed Suppliers, facilitated the training conducted by their stock feed consultant, Bonolo Noko. The event emphasised ZDDT’s Sebenzela-Shandira’s ideology of empowering the community to enable self-help.
