Crystalite Uv Water Purifier For Low Resource Settings In Uganda
Health
2016-06-16
Access to safe water is fundamental to the development of any community. Safe and reliable water restores hope and unlocks potential. In Uganda, national safe water coverage is estimated at 66% with 42% coverage in rural areas. Over 80% of the population in Uganda live in rural areas and 76% of the rural population receives water from a point water source. These point sources include bore holes and solar pumps that pump water from underground.
With 3.575 million people dying each year from water-related disease, our current water crisis is one of epic proportions. At any given time, half of the world’s hospital beds are occupied by those suffering from illness brought on by limited access to safe drinking water, poor hygiene and sanitation.
Ultraviolet light has for long been used for big water treatment systems for buildings and commercial facilities. Ultraviolet (UV) water treatment works by exposing microorganisms (such as cryptosporidium, giardia lamblia and more) to UV radiation, via a special UV light bulb, which disrupts their DNA and disables their ability to replicate.
Having a system like ours being utilized by people will ensure that we achieve the targets of the Sixth Sustainable Development Goal, “Ensure access to water and sanitation for all”.

Poultry production, Great Business
Poultry production is a common livestock business around the world, it is practiced in different capacities, small, medium and commercial scale. As a poultry farmer, your goal is to manage the birds such that they produce optimally and increase productivity, hence, making profit from it.
There are many factors that can deter this aim, some are known and easily detected while some are unaware. Some requires medications while some just need a proper welfare. These are the rudimentary knowledge a poultry farmer should always have in mind.
Poultry Brooding
Brooding is the maximum attention and care given to chicks from a day old to about 4-5weeks of age. This is the most delicate period of a chicken's life and also the most tedious and cautious aspect of poultry production. Any mismanagement during the first 4weeks of a chick’s life can ruin the farm anytime.
So having adequate knowledge of brooding is very paramount in poultry production. You will agree with me that most farmers do not brood, rather, they prefer to buy point of lay or grow out broiler or cockerel. However, brooding is very cost effective and help reduces cost of production provided you have the right knowledge of how to go about it. Though, it's very tedious and risky but with proper management, you can always hedge against any mishap.
Strategy for Use Expansion
We Embed ICT in Agriculture
This organisation is a human service organization that identifies the approach of effective means to involve young people in carrying out A carrying out Agriculture and in local development decision-making, giving them voice and influencing power, with benefits for themselves and their communities.
We are Indented to nurturing human potential, the capacity-building organization is made up of vibrant youths who exist to help youths and communities to access the skills, tools, and information they need to get going and do what they do best. We're about building effective and lasting relationships with people and organizations from all sectors so that together we can lend a helping hand and allow the thousands of Youths in localities across Uganda to reach their full potential as well as getting neccesary means of increasing food Security and Production3 questions for Growers
Our local farmers they need to get answers to those questions before producing.However Open data is a powerful tool being used to solve problems around the world in agriculture and nutrition: from drought, pests and diseases, to food security and food safety.
We are a Home of Kroilers Chicken
This is a brief update about what is happening at the #HomeOfKuroiler chicken. We are managing different ages as you can see and this week we are having new arrivals coming. Make you booking now for 1 day or 1 month chicks we still have more you can be interested in. Another batch will also be making one month this week. Have a look at everything and we wait for your order
A Brooder For a Small Scale Farmers
A hatched chick cannot maintain a proper body temperature without your help. Exposing a chick to cool temperatures in the first three weeks of life makes the bird uncomfortable and less likely to eat the feed and drink the water needed for a good start. In meat-type chickens, cool temperatures can lead to permanent heart damage. Exposing the young bird to cool (20ºC or 70ºF) for the first day or two on the farm can cause the bird to die from heart problems later. Heated premises are definitely needed for brooding.
For small flocks, the most common source of heat is a heat lamp. These lamps accommodate a 250-watt red or clear bulb. When suspended 45 to 60 cm (18 to 24") off the floor, they provide enough heat to brood up to 100 chicks for a single-light, or 300 to 500 for a four-light model. Some units have thermostatic controls, while others have to be raised or lowered to provide the required temperature at bird level.
How it works
Why we Chose Kroilers for Income Generation
Kuroilers are dual purpose hybrid of chicken that produce quality meat and eggs. They offer a significant improvement in virtually all areas of breeding compared to the indigenous chickens,
They can produce around 150 to 200 eggs per year, or even 300 eggs in warmer conditions and the maturity period is about 10 weeks.
The meat yield per bird is also greater, with cocks weighing approximately 3.5kg at maturity and hens weighing about 2.5kg this makes them viable.
Give them Education
Though Children attending school in Rural Communities of Uganda face a great number of challenges like: lack of materials to use at school, lack of food, walking long distances, lack of clean and safe water, among others; this does not rob them their right to education.Yitedev strives had to see that the rural poor attain quality education
Please Support us to support the rural poor in attaining quality Education
See that Joy
Reaching out to poor rural community schools with scholastic materials is one of the key activities of our Organisation
On 25th October 2017, we reached out to over 400 children of New Hope Primary School with scholarship materials like: Pens, Pencils, Exercise Books and Mathematical Geometry Sets.
This donation was sponsored by Bluebonnet Hills Christian Church of Austin Texas.
Lastly, we still need more support and feel free to contact us with a donation of any kind and we shall be able to reach out to as many needy schools as possible.
