Farmers and Community Service Officers (CSOs) in Yurong Paru and Rukumuta in the South Pakaraimas Sub-District, Region Nine (Upper Takutu-Upper Essequibo), have received training in livestock medication administration, shadehouse management and fertiliser application.

The sessions were held on Tuesday through a collaborative effort between technical staff from the National Agricultural Research and Extension Institute (NAREI) and the Guyana Livestock Development Authority (GLDA).

GLDA facilitated training on animal medication administration, providing participants with knowledge and practical skills for the safe and proper administration of medication to livestock.
