[Update 11th Sept. 2016: A Buyer’s Feedback About my Audio on Biafran Scientists’ Animal Feeding Innovations!]

In this special issue of The Farm CEO newspaper, I discuss my findings about the story behind the herculean work done by a team of driven scientists to produce low cost animal feed using unconventional feed ingredients in the defunct Biafra, during the 1967 to 1970 Nigerian civil war.

They achieved amazingly creative identification and utilization of alternative livestock feed ingredients in production of feed for rearing livestock towards feeding Biafran populace with badly needed protein based meals.

Sadly, a lot of what they achieved – despite their great value adding potential – is yet to be fully adopted for use in our animal feed production industry as a nation.

Today, we’re currently experiencing SEVERELY HARSH economic times in Nigeria,that in some ways mirror the economic blockade that forced Biafrans to look inwards for their animal feed production needs.

For the above reason, I believe the time has never been better for us to revisit the MANY lessons to be learnt from what the Biafrans were forced to do in order to survive.

In this 2 part audio I explain in detail how NEW kinds of local feed ingredients in forms that we see daily around and ignore, were ingeniously exploited by the Biafrans to develop innovative equivalents of imported feed ingredients they no longer had access to.

Even if you don’t run a farm business, you’ll get a real education in creative perseverance, determination and vision from listenign to my narration of how it all happened.
