A comprehensive report from BEL is expected January 29th 2016

DFC and LICU disbursed 23 and 8 loans, respectively, for replanting

and ratoon maintenance totalling $36,200.00. The $500,000.00 loan

to LICU has been fully disbursed to farmers. The Farmer Education

Campaign is complete.

Sweep 3 has identified more untested animals than Sweeps 1 and

2; and new farms. Final Audit Verification is on-going, after which

final payments may be requested. The Grant will conclude on 3

counterpart resources reflects unbudgeted taxes on consultants'

contracts and variation orders for construction works.

A short term expert in tilapia feed conducted a 2-week mission in

November. Activities included assisting hatchery staff in analysing

the composition of alternative feed prepared and providing

recommendations for future preparation; and field visits to collect

tilapia data and determine whether experiments may be conducted

at the farm. Analysis of a sample of the feed revealed a satisfactory

protein content of 31%. Expenditure figures to be reviewed and

updated.
