Livestock Farming

Modern livestock sheds have been constructed for keeping of chicken, rabbits and goats. Fodder is obtained from the farm and the right feed formulation done too for rearing of chicken, fish, rabbits and goats.

Apiculture, commonly known as beekeeping has been integrated into the farm to aid in crop pollination and for benefits of other products obtained after harvesting of honey. They include pure honey, wax, pollen, propolis and royal jelly. To solve the existing problem of colony migration, a modern apiary has been put up and equipped with modern beehives for demonstrations and trainings.

We have set up ponds with different dimensions for controlled rearing of fish, mainly tilapia and catfish. Their food is also formulated and processed in the farm offering a cheaper option and an interesting experience to every farmer trained. Water drained from the ponds is rich in ammonia and used for crop watering. Azolla, a floating water plant rich in protein for livestock is also grown in the ponds.
