MedLife continues to use traditional hand tools in bush clearance as the workers are best equipped to use them. Motorised Power tillers are used for soil cultivation in order to work larger areas faster. One challenge is the maintenance and servicing of these machinery.
HELOG Academy has developed work instructions and operating manuals that are understood by the workers. HELOG Academy has also set up a workshop and trained a master craftsman on these machines. It is MedLife’s goal to train more mechanics to keep the machinery in working order.
