Standards Organisation of Nigeria, SON, is appealing
to poultry farmers to adhere to the standards, especially, in eggs’ storage,
grading and production.
Director-General of SON, Osita Aboloma, gave the advice at a training programme organised by the agency for Poultry Farmers Association of Nigeria, Kaduna State Chapter.
In a statement he released today, Aboloma also advised farmers to go into processing eggs into powdery forms to guarantee its availability all year round, saying that this would stabilise prices of eggs in the market and the sector would be creating more jobs for the unemployed.
On his part, Ishaku Dogo, chairman of the association, while lauding the regulatory body for the training, urged it to replicate the training in other states of the federation so that more farmers would benefit from it.
