Snail Farming in Cameroon
Peacework and a partner have developed a collective snail farming project in order for villages in the project area to generate cash funds to support drug subsidies in their local village clinics. Snails are a good source of protein and iron and are also cholesterol free, are easy to manage and harvest, and raise personal income easily. Several snail farms were established, and a manual detailing every step of the process was developed so future farms can be established.
