After attending the Labor Day celebrations in Fort Portal Tourism City, I visited Rubona Dairy Stock Farm under NATIONAL ANIMAL GENETIC RESOURCES CENTRE &DATABANK which runs dairy, fish breeding programs plus animal feed production. Rubona is impressively breeding Ayrshire, Jersey and Friesian dairy cattle.

For the conservation of local animal breeds, 2000 doses of tissue and blood samples of indigenous germplasm and semen of Ankole longhorn cattle bulls were collected to increase national gene depositaries.
