## Why Farmer Training Is Central to Our Mission

The best veterinary products deliver poor results when applied incorrectly. Under-dosing, improper dilution, incorrect application methods, and poor timing all reduce treatment efficacy and can contribute to resistance development. That is why Sanga Vet. Chem. invests heavily in farmer education alongside product development.

Our field advisory team conducts training programmes across Uganda, working with individual farmers, farmer cooperatives, and community livestock groups. These sessions are practical, hands-on, and tailored to local conditions.

## What We Cover

- Parasite identification — recognising tick species, worm burdens, and fluke symptoms
- Correct product selection — choosing the right product for the right problem
- Dilution and application — accurate mixing, dip management, and dosing techniques
- Resistance management — understanding and implementing chemical rotation
- Record keeping — tracking treatments, costs, and outcomes

## Impact on the Ground

Farmers who participate in our training programmes consistently report improved treatment outcomes, reduced product wastage, and lower overall parasite control costs. More importantly, they gain the confidence to make informed decisions about their animals' health rather than relying on guesswork or unqualified advice.

### Request a Training Session

If you are part of a farmer group or cooperative and would like to arrange a training session, contact our advisory team through the contact page. Sessions are available at no cost for groups of 15 or more participants in our coverage areas.
