Tackling the different problems faced by breeders of cattle in Mbinga-Southern area and promotes a sense of local communities for a self-management towards sustainable development in pastoral terms is key to make a selection of a productive system.
The goal is to improve the quality of livestock and its considerable production performance and at the same time, the concern that each breeder in Kalehe Territory, particularly those of South Mbinga turn their eyes on the application of new methods livestock for their high production.
The average number of cattle raised in the household is 6 cows, but farmers are exposed to enormous difficulties such lack of spawners, improved breeds, lack or under information regarding proper livestock grazing are low quality and insufficient, and no momentum is established by the state to help farmers.
It returns a load their self-management for the promotion of pastoral sector by the selection and purchase of broodstock improved breeds, for quality food systems, controlled reproduction and regular care for cattle in an intensive system stabling abandoning the As the extensive system which is the practice in which most breeders operate.
The increase in yield in the production of amaranth and eggplant merit review the integration aspects of these vegetable crops to the raising of pigs from the need for soil nutrients in the chiefdom Ngweshe, a unit of significant size and located south west of the town of Bukavu, capital of South Kivu province.
Households living market gardening developed a system that leads to couple raising pigs to agricultural activities. Since the supply of fertilizer (organic and inorganic) requires the money on one hand and on the other pork raised in rural areas requires dietary supplement in addition to the feed and which also requires financial resources, this study shows the integration focused on the production of quality manure from buying cattle feed given to pigs and vegetables increased yield due to soil amendment by manure.
This was from the investment for the food to benefit in converting market gardening production. The increase in yield of vegetable gardens following the use of manure from pigs reared in households, the quality and quantity of manure produced before are improved integration. Production of pig fed forages and supplements bought from the fields’ income increases of over 50%. T hired household income after covering a production cycle in this system of production increases twice in both cases. This is observed in the increase of crop biomass and increased weight gain in animals and it is seen in terms of money when selling.
