1- TITLE:

Agriculture initiative in Narus South Sudan.

2- BRIEF BACKGROUND:

Agriculture initiative in South Sudan Narus working project begun since 2020 by the helped of Eirene kashino Fund from Tokyo Japan. The project started with main aim of improving life of our Vulnerable children living in Narus community.

3- ACTIVITIES DONE WITHIN THIS PERIOD:

  • Controlled of some pest (Weaver birds) in the Sorghum field done.
  • Harvesting Sorghum for this season done.
  • Motivating workers done but inkind with Sorghum.
  • Transporting Sorghum from field to Narus done with our Busycle and some Women including some supported children.
  • Repaired of Door for Poultry house done by myself at a free cost.

4- PLANS ACTIVITIES FOR NEXT PERIOD:

  • To improve on our Poultry house as currently we have many Ducklings (23 in numbers).
  • To concentrate too in growing vegetables.

5- ACHIEVEMENTS:

  • Poultry, our female Duck hatch good numbers of Ducklings 🐥, 23 of them.
  • Boys school fees for first term was paid fully with money generated from Watermelon 🍉
  • Support of food stuff was made to schools where our children are, so that they can remain within the school during holidays.
  • Good Kilograms of Sorghum (735Kg) were harvested this time. it helped us to cleared school fee of boys both second and third term.
  • Purchased of Stationery and others basic requirements.

6- CHALLENGES FACING OUR PROJECT:

  • Long distance from Narus to the field is affecting our project to progress faster.
  • Hiring Means of Transport to transport our produce became very expensive.
  • Bad road from Narus to the field especially when is raining heavily and frequently.
  • Lack of water point in the Village where our field is, and we used to carry Jerrican of water from Narus to the field.
  • Inadequate funds to motivate workers, workers normally motivated inkind with what they've harvested.
  • Lack of Manpower to help me in this project so that it may not overcome me.
  • Lack of enough space (rooms) in the Poultry house.
  • - Lack of store within the field and incase of any harvested Crops must be park under the tree 🌳 while waiting for Transportation.

7- RECOMMENDATION:

  • Needs for us to improve our Poultry house so that when this Ducklings survive all, then,  there will be enough space which can accommodate them all.
  • Needs for us to erect a small Temporary structure only for shade within the field which can help us as Temporary store before Transporting our produce.
  • Due to some challenges we are facing in the current field, am in the process of talking with the local government authority to get us a new place where we can able to have near by water point and to access security personnel when there's emergency needs.

8- CONCLUSION:

- I'm sorry for not doing much this time for our project but it was due to some others inconvenience (Sickness) but I pray to God for our good health so that next time we can be able to do more than this.
