Message from Director - Animal Husbandry (AH)

Training is the most fundamental part in livestock sector and is an important component in the strategy to achieve organizational objectives over the years, experience have shown that enabling trainings to acquire technical knowledge and skills are the basic capacity building tools and is influence on the wellbeing of society by poverty elevation. RTI is a leading capacity building forum in Pakistan Its aim is to strengthen skills of youth and support their families. RTI serves to livestock & Poultry farmers in respect to impart fundamental information regarding breeding, management, nutrition, health coverage and marketing for the improvement of milk and meat production to enhance the income of disadvantage section of the society through sustainable development.

Directorate of Animal Husbandry in the name of RTI has worked in collaboration with different public and private organizations to developed, designed and implemented different courses for the livestock & Poultry farmers, community activist, and professionals to develop technical knowledge and skill of community; We believe that trained and mature human resources in Sindh and Pakistan will ultimate contribute in the development of livestock farming.

CLEWs training plays key role to achieve our objectives. This is the only way to improve health and production of animal, which is possible either by Nutrition or management. Also breeding management mainly the Artificial Insemination improves genetic characters which enable animals to achieve peak levels of production.

Hope fully the elite manpower trained by RTI will serve for the betterment of livestock and ultimately for the nation by applying the technique which they learnt during their entire training period.

Dr. Ahtisham ul Haq Rana Director Animal Husbandry

Introduction Two moths CLEWs training was scheduled for community livestock extension workers (CLEWs) at Research and Training Institute, Tando Muhammad Khan. The training aims to empower human resources by providing them technical knowledge and skills about basics of animal husbandry, artificial insemination, care and management of animals during normal conditions and outbreak. Events were organized by Rural support programmes network (RSPN) in collaboration with NRSP, TRDP and SRSO. Total 97 Trainees from different districts of Sindh 13 Dadu, 12 Jamshoro, 12 Tando Allahyar, 09 Thatta, 09 Sujawal, 10 Tando Muhammad Khan, 06 Matiari, 08 Larkana, 08 Shikarpur, 10 Kambar Shadadkot were trained during two training events each 60 days. Trainees belong to three different organizations i.e. NRSP 46, TRDP 25, SRSO 26 respectively. Targeted community belonged to 97 UCs from 10 districts were selected for training. Participants act as activists for their community to convey messages related to health and production of animals by keeping advised management measures to save life of animals and can maximize utilization of natural resources.

According to the reports of FAO (world expert forum 2009) the predicted world’s population within developing countries will reach 9.1 billion by 2050 which is 34 percent higher than today (Fig 1). Largely most of that population about 70 percent will be in urban areas. Also food production needs will be increased up to 70 percent by 2050 to achieve the marginal levels of healthy food consumption. It is major task for the food industries worldwide to provide healthy food and prevent malnutrition. Malnutrition is the state produced due to eating low nutrient food or incorrect proportions of nutrients within the food.

Figure-1. Worldwide human growth ratio (in billions)

Pakistan is an agricultural country more than 70 percent population depends upon agriculture, according to the recent reports of Ministry of finance Government of Pakistan the livestock shares 58.33% as compared to the agriculture value added (19.5%) in national GDP. Pak Dairy Info states that we have about 39.7, 34.6, 29.09, 66.49 and 1.0 million heads of cattle, buffaloes, sheep, goat and camel in Pakistan respectively, with livestock growth rate 3.43 % as compare to 3.30% last year. Since livestock contributes greatly to the agrarian economy and plays important role in poverty elevation of the livelihood of large proportion of small and marginal scale farmers and landless laborers.

The targeted community copes using its own resources, therefore it is very important to give awareness to farmers about how to protect their assets and improve their production. The targeted communities selected by RSPN in collaboration with NRSP, TRDP and SRSO are living below poverty line; they have good opportunity to get more profit and improve economically by rearing animals. In this regard animals are the main asset of these people on which not only they depend in routine life but in case any unfavourable situation befalls them they stabilize their economy with the help of animals. Due to multidimensional importance of livestock, it is very important to convey basic information regarding life hazards that affects animals and risks to health of animals to farmers on grass root levels, who act as activists in their respective villages and UCs. List of selected union councils for CLEWs training is as under.

This training aims to enhance basic knowledge of farmers about animal husbandry, protect and to care for animals as well as cure them during any unfavourable condition, good management and healthcare skills duly make them aware to improve meat and milk production by rearing highly efficient breeds. While the livestock management also help farmers to improve production of animals at grass root level. Beneficiaries from different UCs of selected ten districts were trained in two batches of 60 days each during 2 training events conducted at Research and Training Institute, Tando Muhammad Khan. The training was designed for strengthening and giving support to livestock & Poultry farmers in respect to impart very basic and scientific information to protect their assets, improve production, enhance breeds qualities and increase the income by value addition.

RSPN and RTI are collaboratively making effort to develop trained manpower as community livestock extension workers (CLEWs). They should have enough knowledge and working capacity to reduce risk to livestock and become good workers for the community. Definitely they will work for livestock development and minimize risk factors for livestock thus improving their living standards.

Training Objectives . To enhance Management skills to promote housing, hygiene, nutrition and general healthcare of animals in daily life. . To create awareness regarding animal production and income generating tools at household level. . To protect animals against bacterial and viral infections.

Annex C: Definition of EU Definition of European Union: “The European Union is made up of 28 Member States who have decided to gradually link together their know-how, resources and destinies. Together, during a period of enlargement of 50 years, they have built a zone of stability, democracy and sustainable development whilst maintaining cultural diversity, tolerance and individual freedoms. The European Union is committed to sharing its achievements and its values with countries and peoples beyond its borders”.

Government of Sindh (GoS) through the Planning and Development Department (PDD) is implementing a six-year multi-sectoral Sindh Accelerated Action Plan for Reduction of Stunting and Malnutrition (AAP), with the objective of reducing stunting rate from the existing 48 percent to 40 percent by 2021. The European Union (EU), under the EU Commission Action Plan on Nutrition 2014, is supporting GoS in addressing the issue of malnutrition. Therefore, EU Brussels Office has approved the Programme for Improved Nutrition in Sindh (PINS) to be implemented in ten districts of Sindh which include Shikarpur, Thatta, Kambar Shahdadkot, Larkana, Dadu, Jamshoro, Matiari, Sajawal, Tando Allahyar and Tando Muhammad Khan.

RSPN is leading the PINS Expected Results (ER) 3 component with four partners: Action Against Hunger, National Rural Support Programme (NRSP), Sindh Rural Support Organisation (SRSO) and Thardeep Rural Development Programme (TRDP). This component includes nutrition sensitive interventions i.e. Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) and Agriculture &Food Security (AFS).
