BIKITA — A non-governmental organisation — Netherlands Development Organisation — is promoting innovative rural market–based agriculture ventures through provision of agro-inputs and building capacity of agro-dealers and smallholder farmers in rural areas.
Two farmers in Bikita district — Senzeni Chitombe and Knowledge Chisi — have taken advantage of the availability of inputs to take indigenous poultry farming as a business.
There is a new demand for indigenous chickens, not only in urban centres, but also in rural areas. Due to widespread publicity about the effects of genetically modified organisms, consumers are becoming more health conscious.
