Green Livestock Africa

Building the next generation of African farmers.

Open training in breeding, nutrition, and disease prevention — livestock knowledge as the working answer to hunger and food insecurity across Africa.

How it works

Enlighten. Equip. Verify. Grow.

A single pathway from knowledge to livelihood — each step builds on the one before it.

  1. 01Enlighten

    Open knowledge, freely shared

    Workshops, on-farm sessions, and digital resources on breeding, nutrition, disease prevention, and farm management. Never gated behind enrollment or payment.

    Explore the knowledge hub
  2. 02Equip

    The inputs a trained farmer needs

    Improved genetics and lab support, vets on standby, vaccination schedules by livestock type, and quality inputs — grass seed, fertile eggs, tilapia fingerlings.

  3. 03Verify

    Genetics and health, documented

    The verification of genetics and health records, now applied to livestock raised by farmers we have trained and equipped. Provenance you can check.

    Proof the model works

    The investment marketplace — repositioned as evidence, not the headline. Trained farmers, verified animals, real outcomes for the farmer and the partner alike.

Artificial insemination

Better genetics, without owning the buck.

Artificial insemination puts proven Kalahari, Boer, and Sahel sires into your herd — bucks you could never house, feed, or afford. Our technicians come to the farm on a booked date. And we teach you the part that actually decides whether it works: reading heat, and keeping the record.

Every straw carries a sire, a breed, and a batch — recorded on the animal it goes into.

  • Kalahari, Boer, and Sahel genetics — without a buck to feed, fence, or fear
  • No venereal disease walked in on a borrowed buck
  • Kids born in a tight window — even-sized, easier to sell
  • Semen held in liquid nitrogen at −196 °C until the moment it is used
Breeding protocol · Does
  1. Day 0

    Synchronise

    A progesterone device goes in, and the doe is opened on the breeding record.

  2. Day 9–11

    Device out

    Removed alongside a prostaglandin injection. From here, heat is watched morning and evening.

  3. Day 11–13

    Insemination

    A straw thawed at the pen and placed on standing heat — roughly 43 to 48 hours after the device comes out.

  4. Day 30+

    Confirmation

    Pregnancy checked and the result written onto the herd record. You know at one month, not at five.

Timings follow standard veterinary protocol · Adjusted per animal on the day · Visits by booking only

Learn the protocol

Insemination on your farm

Book a date and trained technicians travel to you with the flask and the straws. No moving your animals, no borrowing someone else's buck.

Heat detection, taught

Most failed services are missed heats, not bad semen. We teach the signs and the timing until you can call it yourself.

Written to the herd record

Sire, date, technician, and outcome — logged the same way the Herd Health Card logs a vaccination.

The hatchery

Twenty-one days, held steady.

The embryo does the work. Our job is to hold temperature, humidity, turning, and ventilation steady for three weeks and not flinch — then hand you chicks that are dry, counted, and ready to brood.

Incubation run · Chicken eggs
  1. Day 0

    Set

    Eggs go in at 37.5 °C and roughly 45% humidity, turned three to five times a day from here.

  2. Day 7

    Candle

    Held to the light. Veins mean an embryo is growing; clear eggs are infertile and come out.

  3. Day 18

    Lockdown

    Turning stops so chicks can position themselves. Humidity rises to about 65% so membranes don't dry onto them.

  4. Day 21

    Hatch

    They pip, they rest, they come out. Dried off and counted before they go anywhere.

Custom hatch

Bring us your eggs

Your fertile eggs, our incubator. You get the chicks at hatch — plus the count of what was set, what candled clear, and what came out.

Voices from the field

The farmers first. Then the market.

Farmer
Before the training I was losing kids every rainy season. Now I follow the vaccination schedule and keep records — my herd has doubled and I sell with confidence.

Farmer
They taught us how to feed properly and prevent bloat. What I learned here I now teach two other families in my village. That is how it spreads.

Partner
The quality of livestock here is exceptional. Every animal comes with complete documentation — genetics, health records, everything. It transformed how I source breeding stock.
