I am a young undergraduate Veterinary Student from Nepal. Nepal has great potential for poultry productionn however because of limited resaerch and knowledge technology we are not satisfy to our production system and health managment. I have keen interest on reserch in poultry health mangament but it is difficult to get this oppertunity in Nepal both technically and financially. any other option for me ?
A positive step in the right direction at the right time to help young poultry scientist who are interested in pursuing a postgraduate programme in poultry (avian) science especially at this time that the poultry industry is being challenged by the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) worldwide and Nigeria in particular. I appeal to the sponsors of this wonderful and excellent gift to kindly extend their hand of fellowship to young scientists in Nigeria who may send their proposals in this line of research so as to find a long term solution to this global menace of HPAI in poultry.
I am humbled as poultry industry is growing rapidly hence the need to improve it more in the breeding sector. I wish many funders could come on board and support more programmes.
