There are two breeding centres established in the Chatenga and Chinungu villages of Mkwinda and Mitundu EPAs, respectively. These sites were identified upon agreement by traditional chiefs, from the surrounding areas, in prior consultation with government extension officers from the EPAs. Clubs were formed to run the centres and the activities of the project. These include assisting in constructing traditional poultry houses, working out the administration of vaccines and the associated logistics through a contributory system and later running the stock distribution and sharing system from the breeding centres. The breeding centres are therefore fully under the control of the rural people through the club committee. The construction of the Chatenga centre is under way and almost complete. An additional centre to provide facilities for complementary on-station research has already been established at Bunda College.
