The founder of Hiitambo Virtual Academy, a non-profit organisation, Mbunga Mbueza, is breaking new ground, exposing famers in the predominantly livestock farming community of Okakarara to poultry and horticulture.

The target populations are resettled and communal farmers.

The academy provides training in agriculture and basic financial literacy.

Poultry and horticulture farming is also becoming popular, and locals are urged to consider its benefits, including self-sustainability and fulfilment.

Participants received training on planting tomatoes, chilli, lucerne, and in land tilling.
