The US-based World Poultry Foundation (WPF) created different online training videos to teach African poultry farmers and producers the best practices to improve their systems.

The new series of training videos, designed to assist small and mid-size brooding operations and rural farmers, cover key areas such as management of feed, water, brooding, vaccination, recordkeeping, biosecurity, and poultry housing.
