RAPPORT DU MOIS JUILLET
Durant ces trois mois, notre bureau d’Agboville a mené plusieurs activités de formation de visites sur le terrain, pour le renforcement de capacité des bénéficiaires et du personnel pour la bonne conduite des activités de projet.

Nous avons reçu la visite de M. Ishizawa expert Japonais en élevage avicole durant 14 jours à Agboville en Côte d’Ivoire pour apporter un appui technique à notre expert local en élevage, il a visité les différentes fermes avicoles sous la responsabilité de ICA-CI.

Au cours de la visite effectuée dans les fermes avicoles des 11 villages, ou il été question de voir si les superficies des bâtiments sont conforment au nombre de poussins prévus à être engraissé. Les conseils ont aussi porté sur l’application du compost dans les champs de maïs et les autres cultures pour booster la productivité de ces différentes spéculations.

Il a mis à profit ce séjour pour faire une visite dans d’autres fermes d’élevage avicole à Bouaké

Ferme  moderne de 30000 poules pondeuses à Bouaké
Ferme  d’élevage manuel de 7000 poules pondeuses à Bouaké

La formation en marketing de bénéficiaires du projet a essentiellement portée sur les points suivants :

  • permettre aux bénéficiaires:
  • Pouvoir s’approprier le concept du marketing
  • De maitriser les techniques de recherche de clientèle en réseautage
  • De maitriser le calendrier de production et de bonne commercialisation
  • Avoir des connaissances pour une autonomisation dans la création de son network pour une bonne publicité sur ses produits
  • Avoir les sites de publication sur les fixations des produits vivriers en Côte d’Ivoire et de par le monde
Car l’objectif pour ICA- CI et ICA-Japon est qu’à la fin de ce projet toutes les personnes du milieu rural qui ont pu travailler nos organisations ou qui eu l’opportunité de partager une expérience avec nos agents communautaires soient capable de créer son propre réseau de commercialisation pour une autonomie vraie.

Une formation a été donnée aux membres de la coopérative et aux autres bénéficiaires de comprendre le bien fait d’une coopérative pour un groupe de personne et de voir le rôle de chaque acteur dans la Société Coopérative et de mieux s’impliquer dans la vie de la SOCADAT qu’ils ont crée. Elle a aussi été question de la bonne pratique agricole et des effets néfastes de l’utilisation des es différents points suivants ont permis aux bénéficiaires de participer pleinement aux débats sur les deux sujets :

I- Définition de la Société Coopérative et Principes Coopératifs :
La Société Coopérative est un groupement autonome de personnes volontairement réunies pour satisfaire leurs aspirations et besoins économiques, sociaux et culturels communs, au moyen d’une entreprise dont la propriété et la gestion sont collectives et où le pouvoir est exercé démocratiquement et selon les principes coopératifs.

II- Le rôle des membres du Conseil d’Administration ou du Conseil de Gestion :
Les membres du Conseil d’Administration ou du Conseil de Gestion doivent :

  • S’informer et se former, aussi informer et former leur membre,
  • Etablir un calendrier des activités annuelles de leur Société Coopérative,
  • Aller vers les micro-finances, les investisseurs du monde agricole pour des financements,
  • Faire bon usage des financements reçus,
  • S’engager dans des actions sociales,
  • Organiser des Assemblées Générales Extraordinaires pour la prise de certaines décisions et surtout des Assemblées Générales Ordinaires en fin d’exercice annuel ou de campagne. A la clôture de chaque exercice, le Comité de gestion ou le Conseil d’Administration selon le cas, établit et arrête les états financiers de synthèse. Les états financiers sont signés par une personne dûment accréditée pour engager la responsabilité de la Société Coopérative et certifiés par un commissaire aux comptes si la Société Coopérative en est dotée.
  • Aider les membres pour la sécurisation foncière (à avoir le Certificat Foncier).

BONNES PRATIQUES AGRICOLES
  • Bonnes pratiques culturales
    C’est l’ensemble des techniques culturales à mettre en application, afin d’obtenir une bonne production agricole.
  • Bonnes pratiques phytosanitaires C’est l’ensemble de règles à respecter pour assurer une efficacité optimale des produits phytosanitaires ou des autres techniques de protection des plantes, tout en réduisant le plus possible les risques liés à leur emploi tant vis-à-vis de l’homme que de son environnement.

  • Gestion Intégrée de la Fertilité des Sols (GIFS)
    La GIFS est un ensemble de pratiques de gestions de la fertilité du sol qui impérativement passent par l’utilisation d’engrais, d’intrants organiques et de germoplasme (matériel végétal) amélioré, combinée avec les connaissances sur la façon d’adapter ces pratiques aux conditions locales, pour l’optimisation et l’accroissement du rendement des cultures. En évaluant l’ensemble de ses conséquences sur un milieu donné, il apparaît que la gestion intégrée doit contribuer à économiser le temps, l’espace et les moyens de production et à diminuer les pertes en matière d’énergies et de ressources naturelles.

A- Les trois (03) étapes des bonnes pratiques phytosanitaires

  • Avant l’utilisation des pesticides
  • Identification du problème
  • Quel est le problème ?
  • Sur quelle culture le problème se pose ?
Cette étape est très importante dans la réussite du programme de traitement. En cas de difficulté, consulter les Agents du MINADER, de l’ANADER, du CNRA ou les spécialistes des firmes phytosanitaires.
  • Choix du pesticide
  • ; Le pesticide ne doit pas être choisir au hasard
  • Choisir des produits homologués par le MINADER dont l’efficacité et le spectre sont connus.
  • Le respect de la dose
    - Dose faible = Pas d’efficacité ;
    - Dose forte = Perte de produit, risque pour l’environnement.
  • Le respect de la période, de l’intervalle et du nombre d’applications.
Achat des pesticides
Il faut toujours s’adresser à des distributeurs ou des revendeurs agréés qui ne vendent pas de produits frauduleux ;
Il faut aussi que le pesticide dispose d’une étiquette conforme avec un emballage d’origine non ouvert.
Dans le l’optique de permettre à nos bénéficiaires d’avoir une bonne connaissance ICA-CI et ICA-Japon prévoient de poursuivre les séries de formations dans d’autres domaines dans les mois avenir.

During the last three months, our Agboville office has conducted several training activities, and field visits, as part of capacity building of the beneficiaries and staff and for the good conduct of our activities.

We received a visit from Mr. Ishizawa, a Japanese expert in poultry farming for 14-day in Agboville, Côte d'Ivoire, to provide technical support to our local poultry farming expert. He visited various poultry farms under the responsibility of ICA-CI.

During the visit to the poultry farms of the 11 villages, where it was discussed whether the areas of the buildings are consistent with the number of chicks scheduled to be fattened. The advice also focused on the application of compost in maize fields and other crops to boost the productivity of these different crops.

The expert measures the length of the corn ear

He took advantage of this trip to visit other poultry farms in Bouaké

Modern farm of 30000 laying hens in Bouaké
Manual breeding farm of 7000 laying hens in Bouaké

The marketing training of project beneficiaries focused on the following points:
Allowing beneficiaries to:

  • To be able to appreciate the concept of marketing
  • Master the techniques of finding customers in networking
  • To control the production and marketing calendar
  • Have knowledge for an empowerment in the creation of a network for a the best advertisement of products
  • Have the publication sites specialize in food products in Ivory Coast and around the world
Because the goal for ICA-CI and ICA-Japan is that at the end of this project, all rural people who have been able to work with our organizations or who have had the opportunity to share an experience with our community agents, should able to create their own marketing network for true autonomy.

Training has been given to members of the cooperative and other beneficiaries to understand the good of a cooperative for a group of people and to see the role of each actor in the Cooperative Society and to get better involved in the life of the cooperative and the SOCADAT they created. Good agricultural practice was also discussed and the adverse effects of the use of the following points allowed the beneficiaries to participate fully in the debates on the two topics:

I- Definition of the Cooperative Society and Cooperative Principles:
The Cooperative Society is an autonomous group of persons voluntarily united to meet their common economic, social and cultural aspirations and needs, through an enterprise whose ownership and management are collective and where power is exercised democratically and in accordance with cooperative principles.

The role of the members of the Board of Directors or the Board of Management have to :

  • To inform and train themselves, also to inform and train their members,
  • Establish a schedule of annual activities of their Cooperative Society,
  • Go to micro-finance, investors from the agricultural world for financing,
  • Make good use of the funding received,
  • Engage in social actions,
  • Organize Extraordinary General Meetings to make certain decisions and especially Ordinary General Meetings at the end of the annual or campaign year. At the end of each financial year, the Management Committee or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, draws up and adopts the summary financial statements. The financial statements are signed by a duly accredited person to incur the liability of the Cooperative Society and certified by an auditor if the Cooperative Society is endowed.
  • Help members to secure land (to have the Land Certificate).

GOOD AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES

  • Good cultural practices
  • This is the set of farming techniques to implement, in order to obtain a good agricultural production.

  • Good phytosanitary practices
  • This is the set of rules that must be respected to ensure optimum efficacy of crop protection products or other crop protection techniques, while reducing as much as possible the risks associated with their use both with regard to humans and of his environment.
  • Integrated Management of Soil Fertility (GIFS)

ISFM is a set of soil fertility management practices that require the use of improved fertilizers, organic inputs and germplasm (plant material), combined with knowledge of how to adapt these practices. to local conditions, for optimizing and increasing crop yield. By assessing all its consequences for a given environment, it appears that integrated management must contribute to saving time, space and means of production and reducing losses in terms of energy and natural resources.


The three (03) steps of good phytosanitary practice
  • Before using pesticides
  • Problem identification
  • What's the problem ?
On which culture does the problem arise ?
This step is very important in the success of the treatment program. In case of difficulty, consult the Agents of MINADER, ANADER, CNRA or specialists in phytosanitary firms.

Choice of pesticide

  • The pesticide should not be chosen at random
  • Choose products approved by MINADER whose effectiveness and spectrum are known.
  • Respect of the dose
  • Low dose = No efficacy;
  • High dose = Loss of product, risk for the environment.
  • Respect of the period, the interval and the number of applications.
Purchase of pesticides

Always contact authorized distributors or resellers who do not sell fraudulent products; The pesticide must also have a proper label with an unopened original packaging. In order to allow our beneficiaries to have a good knowledge ICA-CI and ICA-Japan plan to continue the series of training in other areas in the coming months.

JAPAN:

Letter to Peru from ICA Japan

I am Shizuyo Sato, previous board member of ICAI.

I went to Peru from August 8 to 21, research for revising their training center rebuilding.
Gloria Santos, Rocio del Aguila and Jesusa Aburto were working together with me and we had a wonderful time during the research time for almost two weeks. I met the president of ICA Peru, Julio Cesar Aguirre who is husband of Rocio.  Their son Migel took care of me for the transportation.

We visited the Japanese Embassy and JICA with Gloria and Rocio.  Gloria also took to me to the Mayor of Azpitia (Mr. Ramon Caycho Yaya) and Ministry of Environment in Mala province.

For research of future project, I could get enough data from local people.  For example, there are problems such as small water tanks in this area, water does not reach villagers and schools, or flood damage due to river increase by the environmental destruction of the mountainous area, and there are no septic tanks, so human waste is flowing into the river.  The training center of ICA is getting old, roof is falling and toilet and shower is outside of building, not functioning, and will become an abandoned house soon.

We had workshop with 27 people from various places to discuss their future needs and they planned activity. The villagers were thankful for the past work of ICA Peru.  Mr. Felix Max Donayre Pachas, the architecture from Lima came to Azpitia and drew a plan of new training center image and gave us draft design of the building. The new drawing looks very nice, and I will continue to work for a proposal as soon as possible.

Ken Hamji took over the ICA house, and he removed the ICA Peru homepage at that time.  He may have told many people that ICA Peru no longer exists! But actually, we know that this team is revitalizing ICA Peru!  There is no homepage now for Peru ICA that I know of.  But Wayne agreed with Jesusa Aburto Arias to help them build a homepage for Azpitia.  As you know that they had hard time to stand by own sustainability of their life after they left ICA Peru house. 

But Gloria and her husband seems very happy now when they found jobs and they are busy for ground their own life.
I hope that before the building construction starts, they will be able to come back to the name of ICA Peru, pay ICAI dues, and fully activate the ICA Peru.  Their heart of ICA Peru has not disappeared, no-one can remove from them.  They love ICA Peru and are revitalizing ICA Peru again.

It was the right time to visit them and we discussed how to help the community people in Azpitia and surrounding towns and villages.  I was very happy to be there and met them face to face. They had very difficult time but they learned a lot how to overcome this difficult time. 

I believe ICA Peru will be revitalized again in the near future.

NIGERIA:

OYO STATE AGRIBUSINESSS
STRATEGIC PLANNING RETREAT

A three-day retreat held at Golden Tulip, Cotonou, Republic of Benin from 16 -18 August 2019, was organized by the IITA and sponsored by the Oyo state government to enable the governor and his team define the strategic pathway for transforming Oyo state into an agribusiness hub for Nigeria.

In attendance were forty (40) participants from the Oyo state government and civil service, and officials of IITA.  Among the participants were:

  • His Excellency, the Governor of Oyo state, Engr Seyi Makinde;
  • Speaker Oyo state House of Assembly, Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin
  • Oyo state House of Assembly Committee on Agriculture, Hon. Peter Ojedokun
  • Executive Adviser to the Governor on Agriculture, Mr. Adebowale Akande
  • Oyo state Commissioner of Education, Prof Kehinde Sangodoyin
  • Permanent Secretary of Oyo state Ministry of Agriculture, Mr Victor Atilola
  • Program Manager Oyo state Agricultural Development Program (OYSADEP), Mrs. F.Akande
  • Chairman, Deputy Director General IITA, Dr. Kenton Dashiell
  • IITA Director for West Africa, Dr. Robert Asiedu
  • Director Partnership for Delivery IITA, Dr. Alfred Dixon
  • Professor Friday Ekeleme of IITA
  • The retreat was facilitated by Godwin Atser (IITA) and Hannah Anighoro (EPDI), with Joseph Alloh as rapporteur.
The retreat was kick-started with messages from different people including Dr. Robert Asiedu, Kenton Dashiell, Hon. Debo Ogundoyin, Ambassador Kayode Oguntuwase, Martin Fregene, Director Department of Agriculture and Agro industry, AFDB (via Skype), David Ukachukwu of DFID (via Skype), after which His Excellency, Engr Seyi Makinde, the Executive Governor of Oyo state, shared his vision for the state.

He affirmed that the focus of his government is on how to transform agriculture and make Oyo state the agribusiness hub of Nigeria. He considered the retreat as being extremely important to the pursuit of the focus on agriculture and promised to give prime attention to the report of the retreat.

This was followed by a panel discussion moderated by Debo Akande, Executive Adviser to Oyo state Government on Agribusiness. The panelists, made up of: Prof Kehinde Sangodoyin, Oyo state commissioner of education, Mr. Victor Atilola, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Agriculture, Oyo state, Dr. Abdoulahi Tahirou, IITA, Mali, Miss Seun Ogidan, an IITA agripreneur graduate and Mr. Oludare Odusanya, Business Incubation Platform, IITA.

This was then followed by the Participatory Strategic Planning workshop, facilitated by Hannah Anighoro.  An introductory talk was given explaining the process of the workshop and the focus question “What can we do to make Oyo State the agribusiness hub of Nigeria?”

The next two and half days were spent developing a workable plan following the steps of the Participatory Strategic Planning process:
  1. Practical vision
  2. Underlying contradictions
  3. Strategic Directions
  4. Implementation Timeline
the participants were guided by the facilitator in generating ideas in response to the focus question for each workshop and at the end, eight task forces were created to develop three months’ action plans for each of the strategic directions identified.
In-between the workshops were Tao readings and songs to enliven the group. 

CLOSING REFLECTIONS
Reflecting on the three-day retreat, I’m amazed that the group has come together as a team and family to follow directions leading to the goals and well-defined targets of the retreat, and appeal that all who have been involved in putting this together must drive the implementation. The Oyo state government will drive it and IITA will be available to partner and support.  - Dr. Ken Dashiell

We are in it together with IITA. We are going to drive the implementation with IITA fully involved. It is going to be a success by deliberate road map, vision and the goodwill is available. On behalf of the civil service, I pledged our readiness to work. With the influence of IITA through the governor’s executive adviser on agribusiness, I believe that in 3 years 10 months’ time there will be great success. “Let us dream and work to achieve the goals”.  -  Mr. Victor Atilola (PS, Agric)

In closing, Hannah used the “War of Colours” to emphasize the harmony of colours in the rainbow saying everyone needs others to succeed. Let everybody work together with others to make the project a reality.

FIVE WEEKS HOLIDAY PROGRAM ON:
   “THE MAKING OF A PRINCESS AND SKILLS ACQUISITION"


One of the focus areas of EPDI is equipping youths, especially girls with life skills to enable them lead purposeful and fulfilling lives.

This program, which commenced on July 29,2019 with talks on qualities of a princess and their uniqueness as individuals, was designed to engage teenage girls during the long vacation and equip them with entrepreneurial skills and life changing talks like good manners, values such as diligence, integrity, discipline, time consciousness, among others.

Other reasons include: equipping them with knowledge and skills to face the journey ahead; equipping with skills in four different areas namely leather works, hygiene products, wool products and hat making. This is to boost their economic activities.

The program came to an end on August 31, 2019 with a closing ceremony, where the participants showcased their products and some parents were present to grace the occasion. Some of them spoke encouraging the children to keep up with all they’ve learned, while also appreciating the organizers and trainers for the free training conducted to equip the girls.

An evaluation at the end of the five weeks program showed that they had a great time. Some of their learnings include:

  • "Good values, sitting properly as a girl".   Nora Osimili
  • "As a girl you need handiwork to keep you going in life that we don’t only depend on our profession. Also, we should appreciate anything someone does for us. Also, I have started practicing how to appreciate people, and making of keyholders".  Oluchi Isaac
  • "I will never forget about the training, learnt a lot of things and the things I made I can sell themGod’spresence". Theophilus-King
  • "In life, handiwork is good; we should concentrate, focus and pay attention; our teacher have good behavior and always make our work neat". Blessing Ugbobine
  • "I learnt that it is good to be diligent like the ant; and to be disciplined at all times". Oghereke John-Udhe
  • "To be diligent and hardworking which lead to success. I’ve started making fascinators. I have respect and I’m hardworking". Chidera Okonkwo.
