A study was carried out at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) Debre Berhan Research Station in Ethiopia from 1992 to 1995 to compare the peri-parturient rise (PPR) in faecal nematode egg counts (FEC) in ewes of two indigenous sheep breeds. A total of 1439 Menz and 1347 Horro ew...
The effects of breed (Menz and Horro), season (wet and dry), and the breed by season interaction on production and response to naturally acquired gastro-intestinal (GI) nematode parasite infections (predominantly Longistrongylus elongata and Trichostrongylus spp. and a small proportion of Haemonc...
The epidemiology of nematode infections in Menz sheep was studied in the highlands of Ethiopia at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), Debre Berhan Research Station, using a series of tracer lambs grazing contaminated pasture for either 4, 16, 32 or 48 weeks from July 1992 to Ju...
Ewe reproduction and productivity were studied in the highlands of Ethiopia in Horro and Menz ewes mated to lamb in both the wet and dry seasons from June 1992 to May 1997. The data included a total of 4890 mating records of which 2516 were Menz ewes and 2374 Horro ewes, with 2360 matings in the ...
This study was undertaken using 48 mature Menz ewes (3-6 years of age) and averaging 31.5 (standard deviation (SD)=4.9) kg body weight, to evaluate oestrus synchronization, conception and lambing rates after ram introduction following a period of isolation (n=24) or constant exposure to vasectomi...
Competition for milk between calves and pastoral herders may reduce weaning weights, retard growth, and delay puberty in cattle. Calf supplementation could over-ride such effects and improve pastoral economies. To examine these issues in semiarid Ethiopia, 266 Boran calves (Bos indicus) were used...
The Menz and Horro highland sheep breeds are being evaluated at the ILCA Debre Birhan research station in Ethiopia for between-and within-breed genetic variation for resistance to internal parasites. The experimental design involves mating, for each breed, 150 ewes with 10 rams to lamb at the beg...
This study examines superovulatory response, embryo recovery rates, embryo quality, return to natural estrus, and patterns of progesterone secretion and its relationship with superovulatory response and embryo quality in Boran cows after treatment with either a human menopausal gonadotropin (Perg...
The effect of urea-molasses feed-supplement blocks (MUB) on feed utilisation and the inclusion of anthelmintic medication into the blocks at strategic times to control nematode parasites was studied in lambs grazed on low quality tropical pasture. 120 Menz ram lambs of 5-7 months of age were divi...
