Devendra, C.Thomas, D.Jabbar, M.A.[Improvement of livestock production in crop-animal systems in rainfed agro-ecological zones of South-East Asia]Improvement of livestock production in crop-animal systems in rainfed agro-ecological zones of South-East Asia
Autor: Jabbar, M.A.

The moist savannah zone in sub-Saharan Africa is regarded as a high potential area for crop and livestock production. Currently, human labour is the principal source of power for crop production and the level of commercial energy use is very low. Agropastoralism and pastoralism are the principal ...


Jabbar, M.A.[Energy and the evolution of farming systems. The potential of mixed farming in the moist savannah of sub-Saharan Africa]Energy and the evolution of farming systems. The potential of mixed farming in the moist savannah of sub-Saharan Africa

The incorporation of livestock into alley farming systems, in which food or forage crops are grown between hedges of multipurpose trees that are regularly pruned for mulch and/or forage, has been studied for over 10 years in Africa. Prunings from leguminous trees such as Leucaena and gliricidia c...

This chapter uses one particular bio-economic model, first, to explore some questions and hence generate information pertaining to the complex interactions existing in an integrated crop-livestock farming system in Ethiopia. Secondly, it examines various ways in which such a model may be used to ...

Jabbar, M.A.Larbi, AsamoahReynolds, L.[Alley farming for improving small ruminant productivity in West Africa: ILRI's experiences]Alley farming for improving small ruminant productivity in West Africa: ILRI's experiences

Agricultural intensification involving greater crop-livestock interactions and integration is emerging as the most promising strategy for improving agricultural production and productivity in much of sub-Saharan Africa. In West Africa, where this process is at various stages of evolution, 559 far...

Previous farm-level studies have shown that adopting improved feeding and management strategies improves livestock productivity and, in particular, increases the milk production and income of resource poor smallholder mixed-crop and livestock farmers. This paper analyses the impact of the introdu...
