Background of Jimma university
Jimma university is a public organization
geared to ward human resource development plan of the
country
It has a mandate of community service
as research & development undertaking in addition to its
educational role
The JU has very clear goal
in releasing or adopting technologies that can help the small
holder farmers to alleviate poverty

Why Integrated farming?
Integrating chicken farming system with fish farming system can
accommodate the demand for food
utilization of limited resources
conservation of environment
reduction of investment risk through diversification
diversification of family food source
increment of employment opportunities
productivity and sustainability
Background of previous FSRE projects

Geographical Site Significance
Jimma is among geographically well-known
potential area in the west Ethiopia where
the natural resources are relatively intact
It is known for chronic malnutrition and relatedchallengesThe project was initiated to demonstrate and transform the socioeconomic condition of
the small scale farmers in Gilgel Gibe belt
by filling the gaps in food and nutrition security in the
project area and the zone at large.

Achievements of the project
Output 3: Market access improved
60 fish and egg producer farmers skilled to provide their products directly to potential customer (café, restaurant, hotel, institutional consumer) in Jimma, omo nada and Hassendabo towns
Output 4: Capacity of stakeholders strengthened
6 water pumps distributed
All farmers trained about integrated farm construction and management, poultry feed formulation, their business cost benefit assessment, market linkage(how to create market for surplus products)
Background of previous FSRE projects
12
Achievements of the project (Outcomes)
all HH had started gaining income from egg and fish sales ,
5 farmers had been supplying the others ( with fingerling sale at price of 5 birr/ fingering)
All farmers had gained know how, on cost benefit assessment of their business,
feed formulation to poultry breeds to assure sustainability,
The potential for restocking the poultry replacement by brooding
dietary significance of the animal protein

2 family members from each
beneficiary HHs permanently job
created
All HH had started using the
products for home consumption

Background of previous FSRE projects
Challenges of the project
The college had encountered
50% losses of pullet from outbreak of disease in the hatchery
house, that contributed to limit the number of pullet distributed
in phase I
The price of concentrate supplement for grower birds
were to high from companies that
forced as to propose an alternatives strategies for
sustainability
19
Background of previous FSRE projects
Lesson learned
‘‘prevention is better than control’’ especially for poultry
disease
The college had encountered
50% losses of pullet from outbreak of disease in the hatchery
house, that contributed to limit the number of pullet distributed
in phase I
Hatchery ponds in JUCAVM chicken –fish integrated
farm should be constructed and started the construction
20
The main purpose of the up scaling
The project focuses on scaling up of tested model of
chicken-fish integrated farming for
additional smallholder farmers in Seka chekorsa
district.
It has two main components:
Expanding the successful chicken-fish integrated
farming for 60 potential rural farmers in Seka district
Strengthening the capacity of all stakeholders
Description of the up scaling project

Key partners for implementing the project 1.FSRE/ICCO cooperation
2.Jimma Zonal Livestock and fishery resources bureau
3.Sabata and zeway Agricultural research centres
4.Seka chekorsa Livestock and fish resources office
5.Fish-egg producers Farmers Cooperatives of omo
nada district
6.Others
Description of the up scaling project
23
The overall targets of the project
Is to expand the proven chicken –fish integrated farming
experience at Omonada district to potential rural farmers
in the Seka new project area: thus
1. ensuring diversification of livelihoods
2. improved nutritional status
3. increased income-generating capacity of the
smallholder farmers
4. Creation of new job opportunities
Description of the up scaling project
24
Milestone activities in brief
Stakeholder workshop will be carried out
Integrated fish- chicken farm will be established at the
binging of the project period.
Improvement of market access;
Finally, the integrated chicken-fish farming will be
further expanded to trained model farmers from adjacent
districts.
Description of the up scaling project
25
Fingerling supply to the new beneficiaries
Knowledge and experience sharing through farmers field
day
Similarity of the two project high but, it is extrapolation
of the proven model and its experience in omo nada to
Seka beneficiary
NB: New Dimension of the up scaling project is the
intensive use of farmers to farmers skill of nada
experience sharing platform to ensure fast
implementation within 5 months time.

Risks
Disease outbreak among the crossbred poultry birds being
distributed
The safety issue around ponds to safe grand the children
and animals
Mitigation strategies
Vaccination at day old stages
Construction of fences around the ponds
Risks and Mitigation Strategies
27
The use of natural brooding for incubation of eggs and presence of
hay box brooder in JUCAVM is promising strategy to get
replacement stock.
The training and skill attained by the farmers were assumed to
solved feed shortage home made feed formulation from available
crop resources
The Bureau of agriculture as implementing agencies and
capacitated expertise will take over the follow up role to ensure the
project continuity and scale up to other farming community
Farmers to farmers /knowledge sharing or training will ensure the
continuity of the project
Sustainability of the up-scaling project
28
Medication of the crossbred birds
Supply of day old chicks and hay box brooder
Networking of the producers to market (consumers)
through restructuring
Credit service to poultry pullet if commercial farming is
to be adopted by certain segment of the beneficiaries.
Other required service and inputs
29
The project had involved 30% of the beneficiaries to be
women household because of
the very nature of the poultry keeping that requires the
female and youngster members of the household(enable to
income contribution, nutritional role to house hold etc) inline
with the existing culture.
Gender strategies
