Manure Management
•The
project will initially fund pilot actions to test the options for improving
the storage and handling of livestock waste.
Following a review of the different livestock husbandry practices in
the project provinces, three types of enterprises were selected for the pilot
activities: i) commercial beef and dairy farms in peri-urban areas that are
frequently discharging solid and liquid wastes directly into the water
body; ii) small livestock farms in the
MC areas; and iii) poultry units (each
with about 45,000 birds) in the Corum area where there is a high concentration
of poultry production.
