What we do
Practical agricultural services, from the soil to the market
We train, set up and advise – covering livestock, Black Soldier Fly production, mushroom farming, poultry and fish farming, irrigation, climate change mitigation and farm consultancy. Every service is delivered by experienced professionals, on your own farm wherever possible.
Smart Farming, Turning Waste Into Wealth
Eight service areas, one goal: farming that pays and lasts
Stanley Livestock Training, Climate Change Mitigation & Consultancy Firm works with households, commercial farmers, youth groups, women's groups, schools and development organisations across Sierra Leone. We combine training, farm setup and technical advice so that each client leaves with skills they can use immediately and a farm that is planned properly from the start.
Our approach turns waste into wealth. Crop residues, manure and organic waste become feed for Black Soldier Fly larvae, compost for soils and substrate for mushrooms – closing the loop on the farm while reducing pressure on the environment. Alongside this we strengthen livestock production, aquaculture and irrigation, and support climate change mitigation and environmental restoration.
- Training designed around the season, the site and the level of the group
- Farm and site assessment before any investment is made
- Practical demonstrations that participants repeat with their own hands
- Climate-smart solutions that protect soil, water and biodiversity
- Follow-up technical support after training or setup is complete

Black Soldier Fly (BSF) Production
Turn farm and household waste into protein-rich feed for your animals.
Black Soldier Fly production is at the heart of our “Turning Waste Into Wealth” approach. We show you how to rear BSF maggots on organic waste, harvest and process them, and use them as a home-produced protein source in poultry, pig and fish diets. The result is lower feed costs and less waste leaving the farm.

Mushroom Farming
A small space, a steady income – mushroom growing taught from substrate to harvest.

From an empty plot to a working poultry house, planned and equipped with you.
