It also explains the development of practical and professional skills in the fields of agriculture workshop and agriculture engineering carried out at Kimbimba Limited (KL). Chapter one introduces the background of the industrial training and its importance and objectives as a core indispensable part of the learning process for students pursuing a career as engineering professionals. It also contains an overview of Kibimba Limited- the company I trained at including its history and administrative hierarchy. Chapter two goes on to elaborate on the training and shows the different aspects of material that we covered. It contains the knowledge gained from the period of industrial training. This chapter is structured to cater for the different sections of the agricultural department where we were assigned the implement section, agricultural workshop, garage, rice mill and field all having different learning outcomes. The entire lot of knowledge and experiences could not be fully documented and therefore this report is a summary of the knowledge and experiences. Chapter three provides a brief about the experiences and challenges faced together with the solutions we came up with.
