As another means to empower our members and the community as a whole Chasco Sacco is looking into the project of Banana Tissue Culturing. Banana Tissue Culture is a technique that will enable us produce high quality and large numbers of banana seedlings. Our weather patterns are well aligned to the climatic requirements of Bananas and as a result we believe this will do very well in our area thereby helping to diversify the sources of income. Bananas are also a good source of food which can be consumed at home despite earning income thereby increasing the standards of living of our members.
