Branding of DRSLP Structures Sites in Baringo County

Branding of DRSLP Structures Sites in Baringo County

Drought Resilience & Sustainable Livelihoods Programme (DRSLP) has facilitated construction of water pans and earth dams, drilling and equipping of boreholes, construction and rehabilitation of livestock sale yards, establishment of pasture demonstration farms, construction of hay sheds, rehabilitated one irrigation scheme and built a grading and marketing shed. Most of the structures are complete, handed over to the communities and are impacting the lives of the communities in the county.

Some of these structures were not yet branded. It was necessary that these structures be branded to improve the visibility of the programme in the County.

There were seven (7) structures that were complete and not yet branded. Branding involved mounting of metallic bill boards at specific structures sites. In total 12 bill boards were mounted for the seven (7) structures.

The seven project structures that were branded were: – Sawaiti borehole, Kapkelelwa borehole, Chepkotut borehole, Kiboi borehole, Kamogoi borehole, Kiboi grading shed and Marigat Livestock sale yard. Details of how the structures are benefiting the community in the county are as per the table below: –
