Empowering Women and Young Farmers: Kigoro Dairy’s Commitment to Inclusive Growth

Kigoro Dairy is leading the way in promoting women’s employment and youth mentorship in the dairy sector. With 65% of its members being women, the cooperative is actively creating opportunities that empower women economically while also nurturing the next generation of farmers.

By providing women with access to training, financial support, and leadership roles, Kigoro Dairy is ensuring they have the skills and resources to thrive in dairy farming. Women members receive mentorship in milk production, animal health, and financial management, enabling them to improve yields and increase household incomes. The cooperative also supports women in accessing credit facilities to invest in dairy equipment and water storage solutions.

Beyond empowering women, Kigoro Dairy is mentoring young farmers, equipping them with the knowledge and tools needed for sustainable dairy farming. Through mentorship programs and hands-on training, young people learn modern farming techniques, milk handling, and agribusiness management. This initiative not only secures the future of dairy farming but also helps address youth unemployment in the community.

By championing women’s participation and youth engagement, Kigoro Dairy is fostering a more inclusive and resilient dairy industry, ensuring long-term success for its members and the entire community.
