Twenty-five young women from Lubero complete their fish farming training

Six weeks of practice in community ponds: dyke maintenance, stocking, feeding, water quality, and harvesting calibration.

Six weeks by the ponds

The training took place at the community ponds, so that every technique was learned in a real-world setting. The twenty-five participants worked on dike maintenance, stocking, fish feeding, water quality control, and harvesting calibration.

Learn, then practice

This promotion supports the expansion of our work into the Lubero territory. It follows our approach: learning techniques, putting them into practice on an actual pond, and then consolidating the activity through regular follow-up.

We had been trained before, but no one ever came back. Here, someone stops by every week to check the water and density. The first harvest was sold before it was even taken out of the pond.
