He used the services of RMCR to expand his business, to buy supplies of quality animal feed, [and for] the care and maintenance of his animals. According to Youssouf who is interested in the raising of cattle, you have not only the costs but also the markup which varies from at least 50,000F CFA to 150,000F CFA per head. After the sales, the profits realized are divided in two, one part to take care of the animals and the other part to take care of the family.
