Livestock Health With Dr Senen.

26/04/2025

It was a rewarding week for me to celebrate World Veterinary Day 2025 with the Benue State chapter of the Nigerian Veterinary Medical Association (NVMA)! I was honored to be a guest speaker at Akperan Orshi Polytechnic, Yandev and in Otukpo, and to witness the induction of new veterinary doctors at my alma mater. It was a moment of joy for me to connect with my teachers, senior colleagues and classmates during this week.

My talks centered on this year's theme:
"Animal Health Takes a Team." I took time to highlight the indispensable roles of everyone involved - from veterinarians, community animal health workers to hospital support staff and farmers - in ensuring optimal animal care and human safety. I also emphasized the need to recognize and appreciate every one for their contribution in the team.

The grand finale in Makurdi, featuring a powerful address from Dr. Bala Mohammed, capped off the week perfectly. It couldn’t have been better.

I like to extend my gratitude to the Chairman of NVMA Benue State, Dr. Andrew Amine, and his exceptional team for their tireless efforts in promoting our profession within the state. It fills me with pride to see the impactful work being done.

Benue State veterinarians practicing elsewhere are incredibly proud of your progress and we are committed to supporting your continued growth! I call on all members of NVMA Benue Stte Chapter to support this team to achieve bigger things for the benefit of all.

Training Nigerian poultry farmers on alternative feed materials during the raw material crisis of 2024.

11/03/2025

My experience working with livestock farmers across various livestock species and different parts of the country have led me to some interesting facts. I've identified a common trend - most problems faced by pig farmers are NUTRITION-BASED!

From North to South, and from online discussions, I have come to understand that inadequate nutrition is a major constraint in problems people face on their farms.

Many pig farmers are feeding their animals:
Insufficient energy
Inadequate protein
Excessive fiber

Moreover, essential vitamins, trace elements, and amino acids (premix) are often overlooked.

Unlike poultry farming, where commercial feeds are readily available, pig farming requires a deeper understanding of swine nutrition and raw material characteristics.

From low litter sizes, to weak piglets at birth to no milk at farrowing…all are factors of inadequate nutrition. When you feed your pigs well, you save a lot on drugs, gain a lot on larger litter numbers at weaning and overall health of your pigs.

Share your thoughts, experiences, and questions in the comments below!

In the future, I will organize an online training on proper nutrition for your pigs and I hope you will be there to learn one or two.
