The seventeen hectares farm had a livestock population of 50U different breeds of goats, 12U pigs, 70 Peking ducks, 4U geese, 39 rabbits and 15 heads of sheep at time of the training. Twice a day dry feeding of concentrate supplemented with either soilage and silage was provided in most livestock including sheep, goat and cattle. They were also allowed to graze in the pasture for an extra source of feeds. Deworming, immunization, quarantine and strict hygiene and sanitation were followed in the farm.
