In late 2004, with support from Give2Asia, a U.S. non-profit organization established by The Asia Foundation, Byatshandaa and the MWFA constructed a poultry-training center to complement and strengthen MWFA’s vegetable training center. Over the last year and a half, MWFA has trained more than 500 families in sustainable vegetable farming and poultry rearing. As a result, many families, like Doljin’s, have started their own small-scale chicken farming businesses, which can generate over $100-$180 dollars a year in extra income with as few as 10 chickens.
