𝐎𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟒, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟑 (𝐁𝐮𝐦𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠): As part of the farm registration guidelines consultation with the Dzongkhag Livestock Sectors in Bumthang, the Department of Livestock launched the first edition of production and extension manuals for pig and poultry farming in the country. These manuals will be sensitized to the farmers and Gewog livestock Supervisors during the introduction of registration guidelines by the Piggery and Poultry Centres under DoL in collaboration with the Dzongkhag Livestock Sectors.
The objective of this sensitization effort is to raise awareness about the critical technical parameters that pig and poultry farmers should adhere to, in order to enhance productivity and operational efficiency. The production manuals encompass vital aspects such as farm management, breeding practices, animal nutrition and feeding, biosecurity measures, farm establishment guidelines, and related topics. These resources are expected to provide essential information to farmers, enabling them to effectively implement these practices.
