AGRICULTURE NEWS - World Rabies Day, the 13th to be held so far, will be marked on Saturday.

Its slogan is ‘Working to eliminate deaths from canine rabies by 2030’, and partners include the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the UN, the World Health Organisation, and the World Organisation for Animal Health.
“Over the past 10 years, GARC has worked with international stakeholders and many other partners to raise awareness about rabies, encourage collaboration, and build the evidence needed to increase political commitment and funding to end rabies in every country,” a statement by the organisation said.
