Abstract

This report contains and describes the activities implemented, skills and qualifications gained, challenges faced during the training, conclusion of the report and recommendations derived from the challenges faced at UWEPO farm. The objective of this training to make students benefit from the skills and knowledge gained from the field, apply knowledge the get from the classroom in the field and build confidence in the students. During internship, I was attached to the department of animal production, this was followed orientation where I was introduced to the animal sections with the respective managers and later I implemented the activity such as castration, de-toothing of piglets, feeding animals, treatment of pigs, spraying of dogs and cattle at the farm. These activities have made me gain a lot of skills and knowledge such as skills in castration, general management of animals, communication skills and confidence especially during presentations. During internship, I also faced some challenges like inadequate working tools, inadequate skilled animal trainers, and poor roads, few animal sections and unstable power supply at the farm. In conclusion, all the activities were implemented and the training was done successfully. I was able to gain a lot from it and I was in position to get the practical skills knowledge in line with my career and relating with people in the field relating with people in the field. Much as all were successfully done, there were also some little challenges which hindered the smooth running of the activities making me recommend that few animal sections should be expanded. The farm should also improve on the roads so as to ease accessibility.
