THE FUSE

The Eastern Cape Department of Agriculture, in collaboration with the Agricultural Research Council, recently conducted a five-day Small-scale Dairy workshop in the Chris Hani District Municipality. The event targeted emerging and small-scale dairy farmers, providing comprehensive training designed to improve dairy management, increase productivity, and promote sustainability. Participants gained practical skills in animal health management, proper milking techniques, feed formulation, pasture management, and hygiene practices, all aimed at enhancing milk quality and reducing production losses.
