The Dioscese of Livingstone’s Kazungula Food Security Programme provides training in conservation farming and agricultural materials to 280 vulnerable households which are at risk of chronic food shortages.

The project has been successful with many farmers adopting the conservation farming practices which in the long term will increase their access to food and help generate an income.

The area has suffered from flooding and many of these farmers have had to temporarily leave their fields to take shelter on higher ground. SCIAF is working with the Diocese of Livingston to develop a further programme of training to build on the sucesses during the first phase.
