Increasing feeds and fodder production by distributing more fodder seedsDevelopment of feeding strategies using agro industrial by-products
Popularizing cheap feed technologies (silage and hay)
Expand water facilities in Eastern province,
Increase rain water harvesting techniquesSlide12

Way forwardIncrease AI efficiency through training of cooperatives and districts (Inseminators).Divided the country into zones where to focus interventions (Nyagatare, Nyanza, Gishwati, Rusizi and Nyamasheke)
Increase awareness, efficiency and productivity through training
farmers on heat detection, husbandry and milk handling
Expand
the distribution mechanisms and networks for semen to districts, including decentralising the semen banks to 1 sub-
center per 2 sectors. Out
scale the success/best-practices registered at RAB stations and
Gicumbi
so
as to increase the conception/success rates and reduce
repeated inseminations./ (
Gicumbi
has AI cooperatives, Farmer coops and administration)
Engage NGOs
such as
Land
O’ lakes,
Send a Cow, HPI, etc
.
to out scale their operations to engage more farmers and more cattle in their areas of
operationSlide18
