During our last visit to DGC Farm Itori, Ogun State, Nigeria, we assessed livestock conditions and provided professional advice on proper animal management practices for better overall animal health matters.

After sharing our recommendations, we observed that some animals needed deworming, especially young kids slightly above one month old, to prevent parasites and support healthy growth. Early care saves lives.

Deworming young animals is essential because internal parasites can reduce weight gain, immunity, and development. Farmers should follow veterinary guidance and maintain regular health checks. Prevention remains the best strategy.

Proper nutrition, hygiene, and timely treatments are vital for productive livestock farming. DGC Farm continues improving its practices while prioritizing animal welfare and sustainable growth. Good care brings farm success.

Our visit highlighted the importance of monitoring animal health regularly and responding quickly to challenges. Strong farm management creates healthier animals and better results. Healthy livestock equals profitable sustainable farming.
