Body linear measurements, and specifically heart girth (HG), have been shown to be useful predictors of cattle liveweight. To test the accuracy of body linear measurements for predicting liveweight, crossbred dairy cattle of different genotypes were measured and weighed. A total of 352 mature cow...


Lukuyu, Margaret N.Gibson, John P.Savage, D.B.Duncan, Alan J.Mujibi, F.D.N.Okeyo Mwai, Ally[Use of body linear measurements to estimate liveweight of crossbred dairy cattle in smallholder farms in Kenya]Use of body linear measurements to estimate liveweight of crossbred dairy cattle in smallholder farms in Kenya

This study investigates how the Ethiopian dairy innovation system has functioned to support the development of the Ethiopian dairy sector and what have been the major technical, economic, and institutional constraints in the process. We used a coupled functional–structural analysis of innovation ...


Ergano, KebebeDuncan, Alan J.Klerkx, LaurensBoer, Imke J.M. deOosting, Simon J.[Understanding socio-economic and policy constraints to dairy development in Ethiopia: A coupled functional-structural innovation systems analysis]Understanding socio-economic and policy constraints to dairy development in Ethiopia: A coupled functional-structural innovation systems analysis

Ruminants generally succeed in selecting an appropriate diet relative to their nutrient requirements, and macronutrients such as energy and protein are considered as playing a primary role in their food preferences. Diet learning through post-ingestive consequences, evidenced by many studies that...

A survey of 59 small-holder households was used to gather information about livestock production within a small-holder farming system in the Northern Areas of Pakistan. A broader survey of 130 households was used to gather information about cropping patterns, and access to off-farm employment and...


Rahman, A.Duncan, Alan J.Miller, D.Clemens, J.Frutos, P.Gordon, I.J.Atiq-ur RehmanBaig, A.Ali, F.Wright, Iain A.[Livestock feed resources, production and management in the agro-pastoral system of the Hindu Kush-Karakoram-Himalayan region of Pakistan; the effect of accessibility]Livestock feed resources, production and management in the agro-pastoral system of the Hindu Kush-Karakoram-Himalayan region of Pakistan; the effect of accessibility

Smallholder dairy farmers in developing countries face many feed constraints such as inadequate feed quality and quantity, poor storage facilities for feed conservation as well as insufficient water. However, feeding of livestock continues to pose many problems due to lack of information on compo...
