*50 Artificial Insemination Technicians Complete Training under GDI* @NAGRC_DB has successfully concluded a 20-day Artificial Insemination (AI) training for 50 technicians under the Green Dairy Investment Programme (GDI), implemented by @Heifer_Uganda Heifer International in partnership with @aBi_Finance Development Ltd. The training strengthens the availability of skilled AI service providers to support dairy farmers with improved breeding services, contributing to increased productivity and climate-resilient dairy production. Training of AI technicians and access to improved genetics are among the programme’s key interventions. GDI targets 37,000 smallholder farmers and promotes climate-smart dairy practices, including improved breeding, feed systems, renewable energy, animal health and water management. #HeiferInternational #GreenDairyInvestment #ArtificialInsemination #DairyDevelopment #ClimateSmartAgriculture @FrankTumwebazek @DrRwamiramaBK @PS_MAAIF @beinepeter
