MONEY FOR MADAGASCAR
Exclusion from the Makira Protected Area (MPA), Madagascar caused significant economic loss and health costs to local people. The innovative CPALI/SEPALI program is teaching farmers how to raise wild silkworms on native trees. Silk cocoons provide a new, sustainable, source of income; chrysalides provide an alternative protein source for food or poultry; silk moth host trees build up a protective green zone around Makira. Farmers are able to earn $30 (4000 cocoons) -$80 (8000 cocoons) of added income/year and artisans earn $8/m2 for sewing the textile.

The eggs from the moths produce caterpillars
Eh- eh- eh! Working hard, working together!

When rearing caterpillars, you can’t be negligent
Eh- eh – eh! Working Hard, working together!
You can’t be negligent when you put them in the net
Eh- eh – eh! Working hard, working together!
The chrysalides and cocoons, you put in the rice basket
Eh- eh –eh! Working hard, working together!
Now you take the basket and put it in the net
Eh- eh – eh! Working hard, working together!
The caterpillar changes form inside the cocoon
Eh- eh – eh! Working hard, working together!
Now we put fresh leaves inside the net
Eh – eh! Working hard, working together!
