A year ago I visited the United States of America under @YALINetwork. Apart from the arranged leadership program, I visited Iowa dumping sites where I learnt the modern way of making organic manure. I wrote a facebook status articulating my zeal to copy this initiative to Malawi.
I explained my idea to some Environmental scientist in Malawi but non showed interest.
Being persistent in whatever I do, I started the process of making composite manure mainly for use in my fruit tree seedlings at @FarmsPikho
During the first trial, I applied my #compost manure to the fruit trees and ended up burning a greater number of it. This was a sign that my manure was powerful just like fertilizer. I devised ways of redesigning manure production processes.
End last year, i conducted another trial applied; applied my compost manure to one maize field and on the other field I applied NPK fertilizer. To my own surprise, there is vigour growth in the field where I used compost unlike the one with NPK.
I also observed that where I used NPK, my maize are severely attacked by pests (shown in the picture below) while the field with compost manure, not even a sign of pest attacks. Long story short, I am 100% assured that my compost are far much better than chemical fertilizer
Currently i am selling a bag of 50 kg manure @FarmsPikho K3,500 kwacha each, I only have 30 bags at the moment.

Same last year I visited Mr Potani's farm, produced the compost manure which was applied to his fruit trees. Today he is one of my model customer. Apart from this, I have also produced compost manure for so many people in #Malawi including an international company
