LIFA Programs
LIFA Livestock Research and Innovation Program
Comprehensive capacity-building initiative addressing challenges faced by poultry farmers across Africa
Program Overview
Livestock Industry Foundation for Africa (LIFA) spearheads the Livestock Research and Innovation Program to address pressing issues affecting livestock farmers in the region.
This program focuses on vaccination efficacy, mycotoxin contamination and data-driven insights. It not only enhances the scientific understanding of livestock health challenges but also translates findings into actionable recommendations for farmers, policymakers, and stakeholders.
By bridging the gap between research and practice, LIFA’s Livestock Research and Innovation Program plays a pivotal role in advancing animal production and health in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Key Focus Areas
Our training sessions cover essential aspects of modern poultry farming
Vaccination Efficacy
LIFA conducts in-depth research into the causes of vaccination failures, aiming to improve immunization strategies and prevent disease outbreaks among livestock populations.
Mycotoxin Contamination
Recognizing the impact of feed quality on animal health, the program investigates the presence of mycotoxins in animal feed and explores mitigation strategies to ensure safe and nutritious diets for livestock.
