This foundation is crucial for ECZ examinations on animal husbandry and for subsequent topics in poultry, pig, and ruminant production. Understanding livestock value and nutrition aligns with the CBC's aim of developing competences for agribusiness and contributing to food security and economic development in Zambia.
