Agro Preciso Limited, led by Managing Director Dr. Nuruddeen S. Lawal, conducted a workshop in Lokoja, Kogi State, aimed at promoting resilient poultry farming through the introduction of SASSO chicken breeds.

The workshop, supported by the World Bank, brought together 57 stakeholders from the poultry value chain to enhance their capacity and knowledge in modern poultry management practices.
