Damson, a resourceful farmer in the heart of the community, has turned what many saw as waste into a powerful tool for sustainable agriculture. With support from Kilimo Trust, he learned how to convert everyday farm residues—like cow dung, maize stalks, and banana peels—into nutrient-rich organic manure. What began as a simple solution to rising fertilizer costs has grown into a thriving micro-enterprise.
Today, Damson not only nourishes his own crops with his homemade compost but also supplies neighboring farms, improving soil health and boosting yields across the area. His innovation is a shining example of how agricultural waste can become a pathway to both environmental conservation and economic opportunity.
