Mr. Waiswa Richard

Mr. Waiswa Richard is one of the 2018 A beneficiaries of VEDCOS MENU project in Luuka district. He received half a bag of OSP vines (NASPOT 8) and one kilogram of beans (NARO BEAN 1) which he planted. He was trained in the best agronomic practices, applied what he learnt and his harvests were excellent. They consumed the OSP roots and iron rich beans which motivated them to plant again.

In the first season of 2019, Waiswa procured 18 bags of OSP vines and planted two acres. As a result, he sold a bag of OSP roots at 90000/= and sold more than 10 bags. Richard said they have food at home, started up a business of selling fuel to boost their income. Thanked VEDCO for operating in their community
