| Description: | The Department of Animal Science has formulated a Department Strategic Plan and our challenge has been to put our plan into full operation. We appreciate that livestock not only makes contribution to high quality food supplies in Uganda but also indirectly contributes to the general agriculture of the country by providing draught power, manure and hides & skins for export. A large fraction of the agricultural land in Uganda is rangeland, devoted to a large extent to pastoral systems. The challenges to the department include becoming effective player in solving the problems of poverty in rural areas, declining productivity of both crop and livestock and participate in the Government of Uganda's efforts to modernise agriculture. Through its teaching and research programs, the Department is well equipped to meet these challenges. |
