Special thanks to my supervisor Mr. Wanyama for having held my hand and walked with me each step of the way and having been there for me when I needed counsel. His guidance and comments have gone a long way in enabling me to undertake the attachment successfully. I can't also forget to thank the staff of KARl as a whole and especially the officers in the registry for making my stay in KARl an enjoyable and educative exposure. They have been extremely instrumental in the whole activity. My special gratitude to the assistant director of HRD Mr. Kivui whose guidance and inspirational advice were incredible throughout the attachment period I would also like to thank my parents for their financial, emotional, and moral during the attachment period.Item Kari Corporate Plan Jan 1994(Kenya Agriculture Research Institute, 1994) Kenya Agriculture Research InstituteFrom its beginning, the National Agricultural Research Project 1987/88-1992/93 or NARP I was envisioned as a five year slice of a long tenn project covering agricultural research and development activities. These activities address various aspects of generation, development and transfer of technological packages in support of the national goals as they relate to the crop and livestock production sector. The objectives of NARP encompassed the development of a consolidated and better managed national agricultural research instrument of the government designed to provide appropriate and sustainable production technologies for the agricultural sector. These technologies are expected to be more efficient in utilization of production factors of land, labour and investment and thus justifying the continued employment of these resources in crop and livestock production sectors. In the course of NARP I, 1988-1993, satisfactory progress was made in certain areas including the consolidation and reorganization of KARl; the Development of the human resource; a clearer definition of research programmes, mandates of various national and regional centres and prioritization of national and regional centres and prioritization of programmes at various levels; refurbishment of the infrastructure; and development and transfer of technology. Finally during the last several years, a better picture has emerged of the limitations which hindered the full attainment of objectives speIt out in the NARP I and the need for KARl to actively participate in not the generation but also in the development and transfer of technology. In this new role, the need for fostering a much closer linkage between the researcher on the one hand and the extension and the farmer on the other hand cannot be overemphasised. Similarly the contribution of the socio-economist to both the development of technology on the one hand and the transfer and adoption of the recommended packages assumes a very important positionItem Kenya Agricultural Research Institute Proposed and Ongoing Projects at National Veterinary Research Centre, Muguga(Kenya Agricultural Research Institute, 2003) Kenya Agricultural Research InstituteNatural outbreaks if rinderpest were recorded in wildlife in Kenya 1993 and October2001. The disease has not been observed in cattle populations in close proximity to the National parks. Experimental infections of different breeds of cattle with the wildlife-derived isolate(linage II) of rinderpest virus have consistently shown that the virus causes very mild disease in cattle. Recent involving both catle and buffaloeshave shown that the virus causes more severe disease in buffalloes. Experimentally infected buffaloes readily transmitted the disease to other in contact buffaloes and cattle.Transmission was also observed between infected cattle and in-contact buffaloes. These findings indicated that clinically, undetectable lineage II rinderpest virus infections in some cattle can be transmitted to other in-contact cattle and buffaloes. The role of wildlife in the maintenance and transmission of cattle-derived rinderpest virus isolates has not been examined.Item Kenya Agricultural Research Institute,National Veterinary Research Centre, 8th Annual Scientific Conference March 2002(Kenya Agricultural Research Institute, 2002) Kenya Agricultural Research InstituteAntimicrobial agents are important tools for controlling bacterial disease for both animals and man. Bacterial resistance is a serious issue, which can be minimized by the prudent and responsible use of these agents in both veterinary and human medicine. All those involved in the development, manufacture, prescription, supply and administration of antimicrobials have well defined responsibilities to ensure that resistance to these essential medicines is kept to a minimum.Item Maseno University Faculty of Business And Economics Industrial Attachment Report.(Mwangi, G.M., 2015) Mwangi, G.M.Kenya Agricultural & Livestock Research Organization is located along Kaptagat in Loresho. I chose the organization because of easy accessibility and although it does not pay the attachment students, I was able to afford transport easily. It was not difficult to get the attachment opportunity application which was sent to the training department, they advised me that they would consult the head of the department if there was any position. During my attachment period of three months from April to June 2015, I gained quite a lot of Human Resource experience. In the Registry Department, I learned all about receiving and recording correspondence as well as filling them in the respective employee files. The major idea of the registry is to record Correspondences and ensure that they are distributed accordingly. The mail officer's duty is to receive both external and internal mail for the organization sending mail. The personnel secretariat is an office that deals with advertising vacancies recruitment and selection, during my period for that office; I was shown how to write regret letters and ensure that they have been posted to the right people. The office is also in charge of writing acceptance letters and mostly the internship letter. The general function of the office is to Recruit, select and employ. In the PCA office, is where all the payroll change advice is written. If anyone's salaries have to change because of any given reason, the office is in charge of writing the advice for payroll to be effected as per the instructions this form is also placed on the employee's file for records. Salaries Department, all the payroll advice is effected in the computer, the loans taken by the employees are effected in the system to be deducted from the employee salary and all other changes that the employee wishes to change are finally done in this department. The computer payroll department is in charge of printing payroll and payslips. It is equipped purposely for that work. The department prints the first run and later checks the mistakes before they are finally printed for the salary payment. The pension Department is responsible for paying the final dues for the employees in case of Retirement, death, dismissal, and resignation. In KALRO, most employees are approaching retirement age and hence the office was very busy. The Discipline Department deals with maintaining good conduct in the organization. It's responsible for issuing disciplinary issues to the employees according to the organization's rules and regulations. The medical records office deals with employee medical records, the sick leave, annual leave, and off days taken are all controlled by the department.
