Bio-diversity

This project intends to promote forward and backward linkages of the lumber industry through demonstrating that the byproduct of one process becomes the raw materials of another production cycle. Under the technology, which is advocated for under this project, saw dust will be used directly by sawdust stoves. Sawdust will also be moulded into briquettes that will be used in place of firewood. This brings about ecological benefits. Economically sell of the saw dust briquettes is expected to raise income of the project direct beneficiaries. The project main objective is to promote the use of sawdust as a source of energy with the view to conserving forest resources and improving management of solid wastes in Lushoto.
