My first FISH transport
In mid June I taught a one day fish farming training to my local farmers. In turn for coming to the training, Department of Fisheries would give them free fish for their fish ponds. So three weeks ago I headed out with DOF to give fish to my farmers. It was an interesting day. Most of the farmers took my advice at the training and fixed things on their ponds and several did absolutely nothing which was a bit frustrating. Surprisingly the women’s ponds were the best. We gave fish to five farmers for a total of about 1200 fingerlings. They were so happy and grateful. It was a fun day off-roading in DOF’s landcruiser and getting to see all of my farmers.
(unfortunately I'm not able to upload photos of this wonderful day due to my camera getting stolen this week at the National Agriculture Show in Lusaka...sorry)
