    I am Hailemariam Hailu from Ethiopia and I am 26. I have graduated from Hawassa university faculty of veterinary medicine with DVM. Currently I am working at Benchmaji zone agricultural office.

    Agriculture, mainly livestock production, is the mainstay of the Ethiopian economy employing approximately 85% of the total population. Ethiopia has the largest livestock population and the highest draft animal population in the Africa. Despite the huge resource, Ethiopia’s livestock productivity is lower than the Africa’s average. The major constraints contributing to low productivity include low genetic potential of the animals, poor nutrition and the prevailing animal diseases. The main effect of the diseases include mortality, sub optimal production, reduced quality of animal products such as milk and meat, decreased drought power output, and risk of zoonotic diseases to man. One of the strategies haled by the Ethiopian government to reduce these livestock production problems is to increase the number of veterinarians in the country which was surprisingly very few by establishing new veterinary schools. In this zone there is scarcity of well trained and specialize
    d skilled, which is now becoming a serious problem in the zone, For this reason, I am much interested in getting a scholarship in related fields for advanced teaching learning process and to produce well trained and qualified veterinarians who have a potential of solving the countries livestock disease problems.
