Introduction

INTRODUCTION

Production and installation of BSF Home Units using HDPE container (RFQ/JSB/2312/72)

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), with financial assistance from the Government of Japan (under the Japanese Supplementary Budget -JSB), launched a crisis response project worth USD 2.77 million, to address food insecurity caused by the economic crises and climate vulnerability.  The project aims to address the immediate livelihood needs of farmers and their families, who are facing severe food shortages and lack sustainable livelihood practices. The project is expected to enhance household-level nutrition and improve food security that has been affected by the cascading economic crisis of the country. The project's primary objective is to diversify livelihoods and introduce entrepreneurship programmes, with a special focus on 8,000 women-led Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) living in seven districts of the dry zone, ensuring sustainable household income, food security, and nutrition security. The nine-month project scheduled to conclude by December 31, is implementing in Mannar, Kilinochchi, Mullaitivu, Trincomalee, Vavuniya, Anuradhapura & Polonnaruwa.

As part of this initiative, the project has provided one-month-old chicks along with chicken coops to support backyard poultry farming in individual households. In order to establish a sustainable poultry feed supply system, the project intends to introduce Black Soldier Fly (BSF) technology which is high-quality protein-based animal feed at the domestic level aimed at 2,000 households of the project. As the project is planning to provide BSF Home Units with the necessary accessories and training for the selected 2,000 beneficiaries. To successfully implement this component, UNDP is seeking the services of qualified contractors to fabricate and install 2,000 sets of BSF home units using HDPE containers (Poly drums) for the selected families in the Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa, Trincomalee, Vavuniya, Mannar, Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu districts.
