26/11/2024 Views: 427

Today, after 4.5 months of dedicated visits and guidance, the family successfully raised three piglets by mixing bran with fermented bananas using Emzeo probiotics and giving them probiotic water daily. The pigs are now healthy, robust, and ready for sale.

The family of Mr. Vu and Mrs. Linh is one of the particularly disadvantaged households supported by the Thien Chi Center in Duc Linh District, Binh Thuan Province. Despite their challenging circumstances and many children of school age, Thien Chi stepped in to provide technical support, repair their pigsty, and closely accompany them to ensure the pigs thrived and were fit for sale.

Their eldest son, the primary caretaker of the pigs, diligently fed them, prepared fermented bananas, and cleaned the pigsty every day. During a visit, he expressed his gratitude: “Our family is very thankful to Uncle Huynh and Aunt Hang for helping us raise pigs so we could earn extra money for my siblings’ education and support my parents.”

After deducting expenses for feed, vaccines, breeding, and probiotics, the family earned a profit of over 4 million VND from selling the pigs. This income has significantly contributed to improving their livelihood. Most importantly, the eldest son has now mastered pig-raising techniques.

In addition to this support, Thien Chi provides monthly scholarships and covers the annual school fees for their three school-aged children.

Thanks to the family’s hard work in fermenting bananas and combining them with feed, the pigs were raised profitably even during a time when corn feed prices are high.

Thien Chi Center continually strives to find effective methods to help farmers reduce costs, improve animal immunity, and maximize profits. Moreover, the pork from these pigs has received praise for its excellent quality and taste.

Ms. Nguyễn Thị Trí’s family resides in Đức Linh district. Previously classified as a near-poor household with financial difficulties, they joined a microloan program in March 2022. The family consists of four members: the couple and their two school-aged children. Without any farmland of their own, they had to rent land to grow corn and lived in a temporary shelter next to her mother-in-law's house in Hamlet 1A. Aside from working on the rented fields, both husband and wife would take on any hired work they could find, but the jobs were unstable, resulting in an average income of only 875,000 VND per person per month.
