Non-Ruminant Research Institute

You are here: Home / Divisions / Livestock / Livestock Institutes / Non-Ruminant Research Institute

The KALRO Non-Ruminant Research Institute (NRI) was created under the Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Act of 2013. The Institute’s main focus is to develop improved technologies that will support the upgrading and commercialization of the various non-ruminant value chains including poultry, pigs and emerging livestock. Upgrading these value chains will lead to wealth creation, food and nutritional security for all the players.
