EIGHTEEN agricultural technicians have completed a 28-day Basic Training Course on Artificial Insemination and Pregnancy Diagnosis on Large Ruminants conducted by the Department of Agriculture (DA) in Zamboanga Peninsula.

Dr. Darwin Lloyd Sulay, regional livestock coordinator, said those who attended the training from September 14 to October 14 are agricultural technicians from the provinces of Zamboanga del Sur, Zamboanga del Norte, and Zamboanga Sibugay.
