Mixed crop–livestock farming system is a major livelihood strategy in most sub-Sahara African countries. Low water use efficiency and water scarcity characterize the dominant rainfed agricultural production system in the densely populated highlands of Ethiopia. Improving water productivity in the...

Management practices and agro-ecological effects on crop water productivity in Meja watershed, Ethiopia
In addition to assessing rate and extent of gas production from fermenting forages in vitro with rumen micro-organisms, gas production methods (e.g. Theodorou et at, 1994) may be used also to study the degradation kinetics of forage dry matter and its fractions. As the substrate dry matter can be...

The rapid changes in the scientific know how of the science of animal nutrition have taken place in last two decades. There is a much felt need for a text book of advanced animal nutrition for students form Asian and other developing countries. This book is written in a very simple illustrative a...

As human populations continue to grow, the intensification of agricultural production is occurring in order to maintain food consumption and rural income levels in developing countries. The demand for livestock products is generally income-elastic, so that, with increases in real incomes in most ...
