Creating self determination awareness within the community

Mr Njoroge a villager in muranga county had a big farm but had no knowledge of modern methods of farming.Soil erosion,rearing of animals and preservation of trees as a result of the land eroded,the stream was polluted ,animals infected with ticks they were also under nourished.
Kamau his son a class 8 drop out could not continue to secondary due to lack of school fees.He decided to work hard on his fathers land with the knowledge he acquired in school about caring for environment and agriculture in general he cleared the stream and planted trees around the farm,built shelters and milking sheds,sprayed the animals regularly .
The farm now produces healthy crops and animal products because he uses fertilizers and manure.Farmers in the community now come to Kamau to learn how to take care of their farms.The family now earns good income from farm produce and dairy products.They now have a better place to live in and have enough food as well as self employment.The community has gained a lot from Kamau
