dc.description.abstract This study report was prepared during my industrial training that lasted for a period of eight weeks beginning from February 28th to April 22nd in Kumi hospital farm Ongino. The major objective was to fulfil the requirement needed for the award of a bachelor in animal production and management in Busitema University. It's always carried out by students’ in order to put theoretical aspect got in class into practice the aim of acquiring skills for farm management. I participated in several activities during the course of the training that included feeding animals with silage, milking, dipping animals for tick control, bucket feeding of calves using powdered milk culling of sick animals to control the spread of the disease to the healthy stock, cleaning of the milking parlour by scrubbing, vaccination of animals against CBPP, general cleaning of the farm stead by collection of all polythene bags and burning them, ear tagging using an ear tag applicator to ease identification of animals, treatment of cattle to control diseases like calf sours, mastitis, CBPP, east coast fever. Castration (Closed castration) using abadizzor, pasture management (planting, weeding). These activities were done out of proper time allocation and management as the supervisor was eager for me to learn much in the farm. The study was good and most useful to upcoming farm managers, students pursuing animal management courses. During the training I gained skills on disease investigation which put me in position to be able to give a quick treatment to sick animals, I learnt how to charge the dip and dip animals, also learnt how to milk and feed farm animals with silage and also was able to socialise and interact with farms herdsmen, farm manager which built a strong relationship amongst us. Though the study went well it had some limitations which was language barrier between me and the farm attendants, high costs of living since it involved students taking care of themselves. This attachment is correlated to my classroom knowledge because what was done in class theoretically was practically demonstrated in the field. On my side I must accept that before the training, I was at zero level in practical involving animal husbandry practices done in the farm but thank God who directed me to Kumi hospital farm a place that has shaped me proper to be a future potential manager because of the above results, its therefore recommended that the farm management should lobby for funds from donors in order to speed up the process of farm rehabilitation, invite scientists extension works to assess the progress of the farm. en_US
