Quick Thought from Matyazo, Tanzania
We are now in the northern coffee community of Matyazo. This is where we had the very low positive rate last time, so now, armed with 5% Heinz (47 Varieties) vinegar and enough acetic acid for the next two years, (thank you Elisa!) we will see what our results look like. Again recruitment has not been a problem. Last year we aimed to recruit 350 women and had 700 sign up. This year our target is 200 and already have 370 hoping to be included. Whew!
Results so far in Matyazo
