2. The heifer will produce cow dung and urine for feeding the biogas digester and production of charcoal balls
3. The biogas digester will produce biogas for lighting and cooking
4. The byproduct of biogas slurry will be used to fertilize vegetable, nursery and cow feed gardens
5. The vegetables will supplement feedings and the surplus will be sold
