After months of hands-on fieldwork in Bomet County, a group of MSc students from the University of Eldoret took the next step in their research journey at the International Livestock Research Institute’s (ILRI) Mazingira Centre — a world-class environmental research facility in Nairobi, Kenya. Their experience, as part of the HABITAT Project — Harnessing Pasture Biodiversity and Productivity — offered an invaluable immersion into laboratory science, data analysis, and global scientific discourse.

For many agricultural students, real-world experience transforms textbook learning into meaningful practice. A team of students from the University of Eldoret’s Department of Soil Science recently experienced this firsthand through a month-long field attachment in Bomet County, Kenya, as part of the HABITAT Project (Harnessing Pasture Biodiversity and Productivity) — funded by the Global Centre on Biodiversity and Climate (GCBC) and supported by the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) and Bangor University.
