1. REPORT ON STUDENTS’ INDUSTRIAL WORK EXPERIENCE SCHEME (SIWES)   CONDUCTED AT NATIONAL CENTER FOR AGRICALTURAL AND MECHANIZATION     BY     OJO ABIMBOLA EMMANUEL 18/57ZL/00 095       SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT FOR B.SC. ZOOLOGY DEPT OF BIOSCIENCE AND BIOTECHNOLOGY COLLEGE OF PURE AND APPLIED SCIENCES KWARA STATE UNIVERSITY, MALETE     MAY – NOVEMBER 2021

2. BRIEF HISTORY OF ORGANISATION       The Centre was established by the Act of the Nigerian National No.35 of 1990 for the development and promotion of agricultural technologies for the transformation of Nigeria’s agriculture. The Federal government of Nigeria was convinced that only indigenously developed mechanization technology that can be fabricated or manufactured using locally available technological know-how and facilities could sustain the Nation’s Agricultural development. The institute address is located at at KM 20, Ilorin- Lokoja Highway Idofian , P.M.B 1525, Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria   2

3. 3 My first day at National center for agricultural mechanization an agro-industrial research institute, was a memorable day as we were given a general orientation of the organization and I was attached to NCAM integrated farm project (NIFAP). NIFAP is an integrated farm project of NCAM that was established around 2012 which ordinarily was not among the main founding department of the organization. NIFAP was established under the farm power and machinery department with a purpose to carry out and establish a particular concept known as the ZERO WASTE CONCEPT to the best of the capacity of the organization and to be able to train people on how this concept works. The NIFAP department comprises of about 6 main units i.e The layers section, The broiler section, The aquaculture section, The Snailery section, The Biogas unit and a small subsistence crop production unit. All this departments are designed to work simultaneously in a way that the waste from a particular unit is useful to some extent in the other NCAM INTEGRATED FARM PROJECT

4. CHAPTER THREE ACTUAL WORK DONE 4

5. 5 ZERO WASTE CONCEPT How does the zero waste concept works ? Well designed drainage in which layers dropping are being stored for the production of maggot. The water drained from the grow-out pond are used for plant artificial irrigation . The waste materials, manures, food waste litters are used for the production of biogas. Dead layers in the poultry serve as another supplementary feed to the grow-out fish in the pond Dry grass are used for mulching of snail and spoilt fruit as their supplement feed.

7. BREEDING OF clarias gariepinus (Catfish). This is an artificial propagation of hatchings which is carried out in the hatching unit. The sperm from the male testes and egg from the female ovaries of catfish was collected and done under controlled environment. 7

9. Process for breeding/spawning Identification of male and female brood stock make a primary test on the female brood stock to check whether the egg is good to use or not. Place an empty bowl on top the electronic weighing scale and zeroed. Scale the female brood stock. Inject the female broodstock with 0.45ml of ovaprim per kilogram of the fish Return the injected broodstock into the pond and run water for nine hours. Get a saline water. Cut the Male broodstock from the position of papilla 9

10. 10 Cut the Male broodstock from the position of papilla Bring out the gonad and washed with saline if stain with blood The female broodstock was brought out and was strip into a clean bowl by two person The egg and milt were mixed in a bowl The mixture was spread on the spawning net placed on the pond covered with a non-penetrating’s polythene light for 24hours When the eggs are hatched the basket are transferred to new pond for late arrivals Process for breeding/spawning cont.

12. 12 SNAILRY UNIT This is the unit in which rearing of snail Take place. they rear two different kind of breeds which are the burgundy snails and African giant snails.

13. 13 The Roman snail ( Helix pomatia ) The Roman snail (burgundy): The biological name is Helix pomatia which is commonly known as roman snails. This snail lay about 20-30 eggs per day. It took about 24-26 days for the egg to hatch itself . THE ROMAN SNAIL African giant snail ( Lissachatina fulica ) The African giant snail ( Lissachatina fulica ) which also known as African giant. They lay upto 300 eggs per day in took them about 20-30 days for the egg to hatch. THE AFRICAN GIANT SNAIL

14. 14 T he snail house was built in a shade away from sunlight loamy sand and also some dry grass which serve as their beddings. Intake of calcium and water to harden their shell Feeding of snails with green plant and fruits THE HABITAT/FEEDING OF THE SNAILS.

15. IN CONCLUSION During my stay as an IT student at NCAM we initiated NCAM and NIFAP first smoked fish and I was part of the team who marketed the fish at some designated banks in the capital of kwara state,Ilorin . I was also appointed as the SIWES student to handle some excursion sessions for some secondary schools who visited the farm. 15

16. PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED Money was not paid to SIWES student during my stay in the institute and this made my running of the program difficult financially. 16

17. RECOMMENDATIONS I would like to suggest that various industries should try to accept as many students as possible in that while I was being over worked in my place of attachment, some students are out there who couldn't secure a place to undergo this scheme. This wouldn't be the case if more students are accepted and trained, thus leading to increase in man power and enhanced productivity. The ITF should ensure that the backlog in paying student allowances is cleared urgently to remove the negative image being created for SIWES. Students should be made to realize that SIWES is not a holiday job but a course of study to enhance relevant production skills and employability after graduation. As a student who has partaken duly in the SIWES programe , I will like to recommend the programe to all students who are willing to become professional in the future in their various course of study 17
