Animal Husbandry
At Suubi – The Oduhoson Model Farm, we believe that animal husbandry plays an essential role in creating a balanced and sustainable farming system. Our integrated approach ensures that the animals not only serve as a food source but also support crop production and soil fertility through eco-friendly practices.
Poultry
We specialize in cross-breeding broilers with local chicken varieties to create a resilient and fast-growing breed. Our hatchery is in the advanced stages, and we aim to transform poultry farming in the community by providing farmers with better-performing breeds.
Aquaculture (Fish Farming)
We have developed three fish ponds on the farm, which are integral to our vision of diversified animal husbandry. Our first harvest is expected around February/March 2025.
Goats
The farm houses a substantial number of local goats, which are allowed to roam freely and graze on the farm. The goats contribute to the farm’s sustainability by providing manure that enriches the soil.
Apiary (Beekeeping)
Apiary has been a part of our farm since 2021, and we currently manage 23 colonized beehives with a potential capacity of up to 35 hives. Bees are crucial not only for honey production but also for pollinating crops, ensuring higher yields.
