Empowering Women Through Sustainable Rabbit Farming
RABBITRY: LIVELIHOOD PROJECT

In a groundbreaking effort to promote sustainable and accessible livelihood opportunities, IWC Sta. Ignacia Tarlac D379 has successfully continued its "RABBITRY: LIVELIHOOD PROJECT FOR WONDER WOMEN," an initiative that demonstrates the simplicity and benefits of breeding rabbits in our own backyards. The project serves as an inspiring example that anyone can follow, highlighting that raising rabbits is not only achievable but also highly rewarding.

 

 

This initiative not only provides a healthier alternative to traditional meat but also supports small farmers and individuals with existing backyard gardens. By integrating rabbit farming into their practices, these farmers can enhance their productivity while embracing organic and sustainable methods.

The project has reached a significant milestone by transitioning from breeding to processing rabbit meat into a variety of delicious and healthy products. Among the bestsellers are Rabbit Homemade Phil. Ham/Tocino, Rabbit Chon, Rabbit Inasal, and Adobo. These products have quickly gained popularity, with many praising rabbit meat for its superior taste and health benefits compared to chicken.

But the benefits of rabbitry extend beyond the dinner table. The project underscores the almost zero-waste nature of rabbit farming. 

Rabbit manure is an excellent organic fertilizer, rich in nutrients that can enrich the soil, while rabbit urine is highly effective for foliar feeding—a technique where liquid organic fertilizer is sprayed directly onto plant leaves, promoting robust growth.

The "RABBITRY: LIVELIHOOD PROJECT FOR WONDER WOMEN" stands as a beacon of empowerment, demonstrating that with simple, accessible techniques, communities can cultivate both food security and economic resilience. Through this project, IWC Sta. Ignacia Tarlac D379 continues to lead the way in creating meaningful, sustainable change.
