Goat project

KACHEP has a women’s goat project in which they give a local she- goat to a window or needy woman. After the goat delivers a female kid, it’s given back to KACHEP so another woman can benefit. This week we have a student from Wisconsin here helping us get ready for the arrival of Pablo- a 6yr old Boer buck, will is making a pen for Pablo so he can um…service the girls, He’s much taller than the local goats and we’d like to gauge the community response to and see how much more milk and meat his kids will bring. Goats are the most common meat that the Karamojong eat. Their milk is better for children and doesn’t upset lactose intolerant people or carry common cattle diseases. Pablo debuts this Saturday!
