He explained that the Credit Support Programme (CAP) will finance the project. This funding will be 200 million kwanzas, he said.
"We hope to receive this funding to purchase equipment and install a mini-industry and start supplying fertiliser to small and large farmers in the province and southern region of the country in order to increase agricultural production," he said, quoted by Angop.
Bernardo Caritoco considered that this type of fertilizer, because it is natural, helps to maintain fertile soils and reduce the appearance of diseases in plants such as cereals, vegetables, fruits, among others.
The project was set up in 2017 in Ondjiva and has so far produced 360 tonnes of organic fertiliser, which has been distributed free of charge to small farmers with the aim of encouraging them to reduce the frequent use of chemical fertilisers.
The fertiliser is produced from solid waste, of animal and plant origin, which is in a decomposing state.
