“We are here to showcase the work we do in improving livestock productivity, resilience and commercialization in Kano State,” Kabiru said.
He explained that the project is built around strengthening national and state-level service delivery, improving pasture production and management, and enhancing value-chain performance.
According to him, the project teaches livestock-related techniques to women and youths, including pregnancy testing and the administration of essential treatments.
He added that equipment such as feed-processing machines—locally known as kara grinders—are provided to help farmers prepare feed for their animals.
“We also support them with milk-storage tanks and motorbikes to ease mobility and promote efficient livestock production,” he stated.
The Kano L-PRES team reaffirmed its commitment to supporting the state’s agricultural agenda and contributing to Nigeria’s broader goals of food and livestock security, economic growth and improved rural livelihoods.
