Caliandra calothyrus is a non-thorny fertilizer tree which belongs to family leguminaceae. It is characterized by having deep roots, compound bi-pinnate leaf type and pink flowers. It was introduced in tropical countries like Uganda from Mexico and South America. It grows in a wide range of climatical conditions and soil types of acidic state, water logged areas but the presence of frost can affect it so greatly. It is a relatively fast growing tree and yields faster benefits in the first year after planting. The tree can produce fodder continuously for more than ten years It's benefitial to grow caliandra because of the vital roles it plays with in an ecosystem including: Provide high quality fodder supplements for livestock. Caliandra leaves can be harvested and fed to live stock to improve milk production of both dairy cattle and goats. It can also be fed to other types of live stock such as sheep, rabbits, and chicken. Soil fertility improvement. Caliandra calothyrsu

It's  not a one way to say free plastics due to tthe uses benefited by the people around the globe. However, the challenge of plastics use is massive estimated 322 million tonnes of plastic poduced each year and 8 million tonnes leaks in to our oceans. Plastics is so widely used it is hard to imagine a world without. Plastic pollution is extensive and causing significant damage to the environment and wildlife, and perhaps soon to human health. We must act therefore to curb our usage if we can. Today volunteers from Uganda Youth Biodiversity Network together with other youth groups in Uganda passionate about their Environmet merged together to demand the industries to act on release of Plastics, companiesin Uganda  involved plastics production included Mukwano plastics, Coca cola , century bottlers, nice plastics, nile plastics ,Mec plastics, lunco, crest tanks plastics, Ak plastics, Genetex plastic,suda plastics, Tik plastics, among many.

Everyone knowsabout the bees, and there are some 20 000 species of wild bees that pollinate plants but it may come as a surprise to know that moths, flies, wasps, beetles and butterflies as well as some animals pollinate plants. Vertebrate. pollinators include bats, non-flying mammals, including several species of monkey, sunbirds, honeycreepers and some parrot species.   The abundance and diversity of pollinators ensures the sustained provision of pollination services to multiple types of plants and leads to better food. POLLINATORS, INVISIBLE TO THE EYE BUT YIELDING GREAT RETURNS IN HORTICULTURE Pollination is the highest Horticulture contributor to yields worldwide, contributing far beyond any other Horticultural management practice. Thus, bees and other pollinators make important contributions to Horticulture. Pollinators affect 35 percent of global Horticultural land, supporting the production of 87 of the leading food crops worldwide. Plus, pollination-depe

As lots ecological services and valuable products parks and forest offers, it’s our responsibility as the young generation to protect these ecosystems to make their continuity in offering these services and products.   Bwindi impenetrable my favorite place of travel is a natural forest and park with rich magnificent ecosystems providing a range of products to the local community around and best services, but as human timber and non-timber products, with in this forest, some few patches are being degraded or modified into other forms for human benefits and this threaten the diversity of organisms with in and around. A brighter morning straight away from Kampala to Bwindi our journey commenced powered by Earth day Network Uganda together with Miss conservation Kigezi, An 8 hours drive approximate to 473.9 km, enjoying the drive through majestic kigezi hills, with yawning and stipple hunger in the bus tiresome but all we had to travel and walk with in Bwindi and around the for

It can be   harvested throughout the year depending on the availability of water. It is drought resistant and has a high demand on local and export market. Yield The yield varies considerably depending on varieties, supply of nutrients among others. The average expected yield is 4 to 6 tonnes per hectare. This variation in yields is brought about by lack of water during dry seasons which can lead to flower abortion. Marketing Analysis Market for Chilli is available for export but with small local market in supermarket, hotels,and others .it  can also be exported. Before export harvested chillies are kept in cold rooms , where sorting is done to get only quality pepper that can meet export market standsrds, those that can not meet export standard are the one that are crushed and sold local
