The seminars aimed at providing husbandry and technical information on various aspects of poultry farming and production.

Participants were educated on topics such as:
• Poultry amino acid nutrition
• Effects of the use of digestible amino acid to formulate poultry diets
• Day to day poultry husbandry routine
• Poultry economics & record keeping

Educational lectures were delivered by Richard Samuel – General Manager (Ag) and American Soybean Association International Marketing Consultants - Dr. Carlos Campabadal and Dr. Robert Thomas.

The educational drive is expected to continue at the beginning of next year, where plans are being put in place to educate existing and potential farmers on other types of farming such as aquaculture, small ruminant, swine production and horse nutrition.
