Thanks to your support, COMERES is empowering women, youths, and internally displaced persons (IDPs) through cassava farming and climate-smart agriculture. We have cleared community farms, trained 55 beneficiaries on organic composting, soil health, and pest management, and set up a small unit to process garri, cassava flour, and water fufu. Cassava peelings are now reused as organic fertilizer and animal feed, reducing waste.
Families now have better access to food and new income sources. As Mary, a displaced mother of three, says: “Before this project, I had no stable income. Now I process and sell garri, and my children no longer go to bed hungry.”
Next, we plan to expand to 100+ farmers, improve processing equipment, and connect to bigger markets. Thank you for growing hope with us.
