Mgeni Ali Mohamed
Dairy Farmer
About - Mgeni Ali Mohamed
Mgeni is 27 years old and works as a dressmaker in Chanjaani, a town on the island of Pemba, just off the coast of mainland Tanzania. She hopes to become a dairy farmer. Mgeni is married with two children, ages 1 and 5. Her husband works as a fisherman and has multiple wives--her earnings and a portion of his total roughly US$ 95 (TZS 150,000) each year.
As part of the Chanjaani group, Mgeni is looking forward to helping to open the local branch of Pemba Fresh, the island's first dairy farm, where she and the group will care for the cattle and produce fresh milk, eventually expanding to cheese, yogurt, butter, ghee, and other products. Through dairy farming, Mgeni has the potential to vastly increase her income and improve her daily life.
