Thirty regional producers are enhancing their skills in raising small ruminants and poultry through a two-day workshop.
A two-day training workshop on the production, nutrition, health, and housing of small ruminants and poultry began Monday in Mali's Koulikoro region. Approximately thirty local producers are participating in the event, which aims to bolster their expertise in livestock feed production. The initiative seeks to improve breeding conditions and the marketability of animals.
The training is organized by the NGO MALIMARK, with support from the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) and the Malian Institute of Rural Economy (IER). The workshop focuses on practical skills to enhance the overall quality and economic viability of livestock farming operations within the region.
The workshop concludes today, Tuesday, October 20. Participants are expected to return to their farms with new knowledge and techniques to apply directly to their operations, potentially leading to increased productivity and better market access for their livestock products.
