CYDC has identified as part of their 3-year strategic plan that they would like to establish a community "cow bank" to help increase animal cultivation in Moung Russey. They are also considering the same with pigs.
For this task, we are seeking volunteers who can advise them on feeding, daily care, when and how to sell, etc. We are also looking for information on organizations who may help CYDC in achieving this goal. If you locate such an organization, please post information pertaining to their requirements here as well.

Congratulations Kimsorn that is great news! I am confident that CYDC will implement the project with great professionalism.
All the best-
Jennifer

Hi Kimsorn,
I am so happy to hear that you guys got funding for health care. It is extremely good news!!! Sorry to hear you are sick. Hope you feel better soon. How is the translations coming along for the catering (cooking) classes? Is there anything I can help with so long? I still need to forward you more training documents, but I don't want to overwhelm you guys all at once. While you are trying to get a presenter, I a willing to help with power point presentations in English that you can only read off the computer for the students and mail me questions to answer to my work or private address. I am checking in there more often than on Nabuur as I have to monitor my mail from the boss ;-)
I will also help with proposal writing whenever you guys need it. Just drop me a mail with all the relevant info I need. Your village has got a very special place in my heart an I am willing to help wherever I can.

Hello Kimsorn,
It's been a long time since I have posted here and in Nabuur. Is there anything I can do to help your community? I hope you're doing fine now and in the best of health. I really admired your hard work in making Moung Russey a better place and for that you're reaping the fruits of your labor. Hope I can contribute to your cause soon.
Regards and more power!
Junjun
Dear Kimsorn,
I can give you some help on how to do these projects. Tell me more about the whole set up in your area. What do you want to raise? Pig, goat, cow etc or what specific high value crops you want to plant so we can make things roll!
Regards,
Junjun
I would like to present some thoughts about the raising of cows. I grew up with cows and have a BS in dairy husbandry. I love cows.
Native breeds produce little milk. The reason is not because they are native breeds. It is because of poor feed. Straw is the usual feed. It has no food value. Leave it on the soil to improve it. Feed the cows high quality forages and they will produce a lot of milk. A little grain helps, too.
I hope the farmers are using: Organic, no-till gardening/farming [hand tools only] in permanent beds doubles or triples yields, reduces labor by 50% or more, reduces inputs/expenses to nearly 0 [need seed for new crops and green manure/cover crops], increases fertility, stops soil erosion [no rain water runoff], eliminates most weed, disease and insect problems and greatly increases profits. Use bucket drip irrigation [made by gardener/farmer] to produce during the dry season and in areas of low rainfall.
Dear Ken,
I'm sure Kimsorn is very happy about your inputs in this project. Your guide in making cow more productive is a big step to this community.
Dear Kimsorn,
Several years ago, we have this high value crops project in your community and it was successful and I would like to inquire if what crops do you to plant in your community. I can help you with some sweet pepper and other seeds for your community to sow. And it where can I send the seeds? Can you give me the exact address of your community?
Regards,
Junjun
For the last several years I have taken seed for new crops to my farming workshops. Here are some to consider. Do people like spaghetti? Get some spaghetti squash seed and grow your own rather than buying it.
Baby maize [eat cob and grain], popping maize, sweet maize, endamame soybeans [for humans; not livestock].
Go to www.groworganic.com to see what is available.
Ken
Dear Junjun
How was the long way you are from me on Moung Russey village, I'm happy to hear from you back and hope othr friends will continue to puthand to improve my project here. I hope you can send the seed to my community through post office like Mr. Ken sent me the DVD to teach youth and women group on Organic farm as below. Thank you Ken for your commend and contribute the strategy an method to make cow for milk get most effective. Exectly the cow bank here is mean we support one cow seed to poor women household and pass on to others families in their community after it give the birth. The family can get one cow for sale and invest capital to initiative own bussiness. Please come to visit our post for fund raising to support women on http://www.betterplace.org/projects/4306-support-women-with-cow-raising. Please join with our team to help women in fund raising.
I hope to h from you soon
