The livestock sector plays an important part in the agricultural
economy. Educated,
enthusiastic livestock owners who understand agribusiness and the related
methods to reduce their risks, are key to sustainable livestock farming and
will play a vital role in supporting and enhancing sustainable agriculture and
food security.

Course Design
A way to bolster agricultural production is to develop practical agricultural education systems. A powerful way of doing this is through the use of audio-visual modules which is a highly effective and tested methodology to approach, examine, and impart knowledge.
This is a comprehensive series of modules that follow a step-by-step process and can be used in group training or self-study – and are structured according to visual training guidelines. This implies defining most of the terminology used and where necessary, supporting the visual storyline with graphics and animation to enhance the learning process and ensure that sustainable knowledge is gained in the learning process.
These modules are designed to do precisely what they are meant to do – and that is to support skills development.
