Farmer Story

"Before HERVeg.05, I only planted maize. I struggled to feed my children and buy school supplies. Now I have chickens that lay eggs, vegetables to eat and sell, and my soil is more fertile. I even joined a savings group. I feel in control for the first time."

Amina, Mother of Four, Magoda village
