Kayaletu Makasi lives on a pretty little smallholding on the road to Chintsa. He has 17 cows, three pigs and a gaggle of chickens. He feeds their manure (about 20 litres a week) into a small digester and in return he gets an unlimited supply of free fuel, highly nutritious food for the pigs and chickens, and a treasure trove of organic fertiliser for his soil. The animal food comes in the form of a bright green, protein- packed algae called chlorella which forms on the water afterwards.
The simple, low-tech solution cost him about R5000 to set up.
