At Kalapula Agribusiness Ventures (KAbV), crop production plays a strategic role in strengthening our sustainable livestock and aquaculture systems. We currently cultivate maize and Azolla as key ingredients for our animal and fish feed, reducing dependence on costly commercial feeds while improving cost efficiency and resource control. Looking ahead, we plan to establish our own feed manufacturing facility and to work with small-scale farmers through an outgrower scheme, sourcing maize and other feed ingredients locally. This approach will lower production costs, strengthen local value chains, and create inclusive income opportunities while supporting climate-smart and circular agribusiness development.
