Poultry farmers

The training was conducted through the USAIDs PNG Lukautim Graun Program (LGP) together with the Doers Agro Services. 

A total of 36 participants, most of whom were women leaders and representatives from cluster groups, CBOs, the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Livestock and several small to medium enterprises attended the training.

Most participants were selected from the Financial Literacy Training (FLT) that was conducted by USAID LGP for the Bismarck Corrido sites from 2022 to 2023.

These vital information handbooks were delivered after a visit in 2021 and the need for more information for poultry farmers. 

In 2021, Farmer's and Settlers Association with funding support from Livestock Development Corporation, DAL Highlands Region, DPI Daulo, NAQIA, Zenag Chicken and Goodman Fielder's undertook Poultry Awareness and Training in Central, Gulf, Madang (Ramu Valley), EHP and parts of Simbu and Jiwaka.

The visits were a success with request for more training at local level government venues and the need for information booklets for poultry farmers.
