Hello subscriber subscriber,

Jacana SMART centre starts

In preparation to start the SMART training centre two wells have been drilled and pumps installed, one at Jacana demo plot and the other one at a farmers plot.

Online training: Deepening a well

Plants and crops are dying because many hand dug wells are running dry and there are still 3 months without a drop of rain ahead of us.

Jacana felt the need to train drillers and develop online training materials for deepening wells in order to help farmers.
