Objective & Outcomes

Specific objective: to increase nutritional intake and generate increased income through the development of a new, self-sustaining market in Bag Digesters, biogas and organic fertiliser in 12 communities in Surkhet and Banke districts. It will benefit circa 3,300 people directly, with system level changes ensuring communities in both districts and the provinces they lie in, benefit long after project’s end. 

Outcome 1: 12 Bag Digesters installed through the project are functioning effectively, producing both biogas and slurry products

Outcome 2: 14 rural communities have increased their agricultural productivity through improved utilisation of slurry, organic compost fertiliser and enhanced agriculture techniques

Outcome 3: Supply chain and market centred on biogas, organic compost fertiliser and agricultural products developed in 12 communities

Outcome 4: Project achievements, best practices and learning documented and disseminated
