  • Continuation of planting vegetables.

  • Harvesting of crops is done successfully.

6- CHALLENGES:

  • Means of Transport.
  • Inadequate numbers of tools: more so during Harvesting season.
  • Motivation funds: made us to pay the workers with what we harvested.
  • Rampant stealing especially when crops about to be harvested.
  • Unreliable rainfall this year 2021.
  • Insecurity ( gun fighting between Toposa tribe and Turkana tribe ).

7- WAY FORWARD:

  • May be if fund can allow, we can get two wheels bike as our means of Transport.
  • May be if fund can allow, we can motivate our workers with cash rather than in kind.
  • Will be good if we can provide security personnel to guard the farm especially during harvest.
  • We can plan to add more tools next season.

8- CONCLUSION:

I strongly thank you for your prayers and support. I promise to remember you in our daily prayers too.
NB: Takanori, How do you see? if you can delegate someone whom you trust most to come and follow up to see what your fund are doing and where you're sending support.
