1 - 20 of 45
160 - Plant shade trees around and within bullock and pig pastures/enclosures
161 - Keep forested/shade/reserve areas within the farm, so that during drought times, animals can be moved into these cooler naturally moist areas
162 - Bullock may be grazed in the open, but for resting should be brought into forests
163 - Utilize appropriate building materials for livestock enclosres that can withstand climtic extremes
163 - Build special enclosures for pigs to have an appropriate balance of exposure and shelter
164 - Select shady sites for pig enclosures
165 - Provide shade over the chicken fence, either with normal housing roof material or trees.
189 - Cross breed, select for and utilize drought resilient varieties of bullock
190 - Cross breed, select for and utilize drought resilient Rasta chickens
191 - Cross breed, select for and utilize drought resilient African chickens
192 - Utilize fast breeding African chickens
193 - Utilize chickens for meat during drought times rather than other animals
195 - Domesticate wild chickens for meat but ensure robust fencing
196 - Cross breed, select for and utilize drought resilient varieties of pig
289 - Establish conserved buffer and creek rehabilitation zones
290 - Divert flood prone waterways away from sensitive biodiversity breeding areas
291 - Remove the invasive vines that are killing trees and covering the canopy that inhibits water removal/evaporation
292 - Plant trees and flora that have good root systems to control, slow flood damage
322 - Plant pasture grass species that can withstand flood conditions (para and elephant)
323 - Plant pasture grass species that can tolerate water (papolo and beans)
