Africa accounts for 50 of all plantain produced in the world. These plantains are overwhelmingly import as a food crop for local consumption. Black sigatoka has now invaded Africa, thereby endangering this important food source. The long term solution lies in the creation of black sigatoka resist...

Phosphorus is important for cowpea production in many tropical African soils with inherent low P fertility. Most farmers in Africa, however, do not have access to P fertilizer. Selection of cowpea lines that produce good yield under low soil P or those with high P-use efficiency can be a low inpu...

This paper reviews the current status of application of artificial insemination (AI) in poultry in Ethiopia. The technique was not practiced in the country before 2002. The application of AI in chicken in Ethiopia has been tested by comparing natural mating (NM), natural mating plus artificial in...

Seventy 1- to 4-year old female indigenous goats were matched and randomised into two groups to measure the effects of naturally acquired trypanosome infections on oestrus and conception. All goats were treated twice with diminazene aceturate (Berenil) at 7 mg/kg body weight at two-week intervals...

Seasonal breeding is potentially a powerful intervention affecting productivily, particularly so in semi-arid environments where seasonal differences are great; however, variability is also great, increasing the risk for such interventions. Simulation was used to examine the effects of 5 breeding...

This work was conducted to assist the large cattle multiplication centres to produce more animals of the genotype being demanded to improve peasant farm income, to generate an alternative way of introducing the same genotype to farmers with limited income by using artificial insemination, to assi...

This study examined estrus response, estrus response interval and pregnancy rate of Bos indicus and B. indicus x B. taurus crossbred cows and heifers after oestrus synchronization. A total of 101 non-pregnant and cycling animals, composed of 63 Boran (46 heifers and 17 cows) and 38 Boran-Simmenta...
