The DUFASHANYE association, in the highlands of Burundi, is taking a key step toward self-sufficiency! With the arrival of 5 first pigs, the association is launching a new farming workshop.

These are five piglets intended to help strengthen pig farming in the Ijenda community through the DUFASHANYE cooperative. The aim is to help fulfill the core mission of the parent association, AEVCPV: empowering vulnerable communities in Burundi through sustainable farming and livestock practices, strengthening food security, improving livelihoods, and fostering socio-economic resilience. Ijenda is a tea-growing region. According to Eric NDAYISABA, in his dissertation: THE TEA-GROWING REGION OF IJENDA (BURUNDI): ECONOMY AND SOCIETY 1965\u20132011, presented in 2016, pig farming in Ijenda is a widespread subsistence agropastoral activity, but mainly practiced on a small scale by households. It is a pillar of the local economy of the high plateaus. Eric Ndayisaba writes that pig farming in this part of the country is an asset for agriculture because, in his view, it is closely intertwined with farming (market gardening and tea cultivation). It is mainly sought for the production of high-quality organic manure<\/strong>, essential for fertilizing the soils. <\/p>\n

According to the population of Ijenda, pigs are often sold in local markets such as Kanyosha or Bujumbura to generate occasional income and finance household needs.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that, for the moment, the DUFASHANYE cooperative in Ijenda has 32 members. Its leader is Mrs. Jeanine Ndayisaba. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
