UKC company profile

The Government of Rwanda through the District and Sector gave my family a household cow. My dad was asked to establish a kraal and feeding garden to cultivate pasture. He did it. The Fresian cow given for free, gave us milk and dung, making us get milk for home use and surplus for sale. However, we were hit by the summertime and the pasture was depleted due to small plot cultivation we struggled to produce food crops and cow fodder. Our lovely cow started starving, prompting us to rise as early as 4 am and fetch thinny dry shrubs and grass along roadsides and river banks. Our milk production fell from 12 liters a day to 3 liters. The family got stressed with the unstoppable cow mows, rendering the neighborhood complaints about our darling cow noise nuisance due to undernutrition. “Daddy, I will find a way, I am in a country of solutions, not setbacks and regrets. Internet surfing led me to a new technology called Hydroponics Fodder”. Liaising with the external expert made the technology knock at our door, in Rwanda". The UKC member and vision bearer said.
