Business Plan: Feed processing by youth groups in Doyogena, Ethiopia

A business plan for animal feed processing by sheep fattening youth groups in Doyogena, Ethiopi

Business Plan « Feed processing » by Boqa Shuta Shaya CBBP and sheep fattening cooperative in Bonga, Ethiopia

The objective of the project is to produce valuable compound feed by a farmer cooperative in Bonga, valorizing their own agricultural production. The farmer cooperative uses local available feeds which are not prepared as compound feed and concentrates as well as ingredients imported to fatten their sheep. Through the production of their own compound feed using a feed-producing chain, animals will gate a compound feed from locally available feed resources options and production costs will be reduced, and income increased. Several basic arguments support the realization of such a project: 1. The lack of forage resources in several regions of the country. Shortage of local animal feed sources and high prices of imported feed 2. Improve feed quality as imported concentrates are often of poor quality 3. The very advantageous cost of the feed produced by the unit 4. Provide inexpensive and quality feed in times of shortage of fodder resources or when they are very costly or interrupted in the local market. 5. Need to create employment for youth and wome
