HydroBarley : production and sale of green fodder at affordable prices for small farmers
Tell us a few words about the founders and how the idea came
We are 3 founders, brother and sister and one friend, we had been working in an association that promotes social entrepreneurship. Our story started with a need assessment trip that we did to find social issues that we can solve in a village near Rabat, Morocco (where my parents live since 2006).
During our visit we have noticed that some children are in pasture, speaking to them we knew that they are not allowed to go to school because their parents oblige them to spend time looking to feed their livestock. We talked with the parents to understand well the real cause of that. And here our Idea came because the parents told us that because of the high and fluctuant price of fodder they are obliged to send their children to pasture or sell some of their cattle to feed the rest.
