dig a depth of 1.5 feet,
spacing from each plant is 8 inches,
depth of planting holes is 1 feet,
dig a trench for disposal purposes 1.5 feet deep,
put a polythene paper that covers the whole area,
mix organic manure with soil at ratio 1:2,

Donkey business


Donkey business
In a place like Kyuso, if one asks you to choose between rearing beef animals and keeping donkeys, please take the donkeys. For the few days I have been in Kyuso, I have seen the importance of donkeys. My analysis is as follows:







Rearing beef cattle
Expenses:_ hay @ at kshs 150 per week,
                  :_ water @ kshs 20 per 20 litres per day,
                  :_ vertinary services kshs 800 per year,
                  :_ labour kshs 30 per day.

Revenue:_ sell it at kshs 50,000 at the end of the year.

Profits= 50,000 less ( expenses )
             = 50,000 _ (7800+7300+10950+800)
            = kshs 23150

Keeping donkey
Expenses are far minimal because it will only require vertinary services which amounts to kshs 1000 per annum. 

Income/revenue
A donkey carries 100 litres of water which costs kshs 100 and can take a minimum of 5 trips a day.
Assume it only works for five days a week.
Profits = revenue less expenses
             =(500*5*12) _ 1000
             =130,000 – 1000
             =kshs 129,000

The assumption is for one bull and a donkey. 

Recommendations
Love your job even if it looks disgusting,
Be proud of what you do,
Let your goals lead you and,
Be happy and enjoy what you do.
Deductions
In whatever you undertake look at the benefits.
Money is the determining factor in any small, medium, huge, clean or dirty job but don,t steal.

WATER HARVESTING TECHNIQUE IN ARID AREAS

in arid areas water is the major constraints to pastrorists, people and farmers.
lets take an example for an area like kyuso district in mwingi a home of Kenyan vice president Stephen kalonzo musyoka.
in these areas we experience heavy rains and sometimes we get floods and this is the time should not let this water be swallowed by the ground.
considering most people in these areas are below poverty line and cannot afford to build concrete tanks or purchase expensive plastic tanks i see it ironical to purchase what they could have stored for future use considering the cost of purchasing and cost of storage.
what am trying to suggest is building a personal tank which is a bit cheaper and durable.
here are some tips on how it can be done:
get a free space near your house where gutters can reach your tank,
dig a two square and a depth of your desire,
after that purchase a polythene bag which is a bit cheaper than cement,
join the polythene to fit your hole up to the top,
after that raise ground surrounding the hole to prevent dirty water from entering your safe,
cover your hole to prevent unwanted materials leaving fetching point and holes connecting with gutters.
my friends i told you am a businessman and profit oriented, you have saved money, got clean water and live simple. i guess a person living below poverty line can afford this.
check out on my next post i got so much business for you.
