Simple in vitro techniques were developed for collecting Digitaria eriantha ssp. pentzii and Cynodon dactylon to obviate deterioration, quarantine and bulk problems of conventional methods for collecting vegetative material. Various antimicrobial agents were tested for effective surface- sterilis...

Behaviour studies were carried out for 24-hour periods on four groups of experimental goats. There were no major differences between the behaviour of the several animals within a group at any given trial, but there were small statistically significant differences in the times individual goats spe...

Soil waterlogging reduces gas exchange between the soil and the atmosphere, leading to oxygen deprivation in the rhizosphere. Brachiaria spp. are the most widely sown forage grasses in tropical America. Among commercial Brachiaria grasses, B. humidicola shows superior tolerance to waterlogged soi...

Growth potential of Sudanese indigenous cattle was investigated. Performances on grass and concentrate feeding were evaluated. Data on various levels of feeding and growth, the interrelationship between body weight gains and carcass traits included.

The experiment was carried out over three seasons during which a total of 889 Afrikander and 805 Simmental 'cow years' were studied. Nucleus breeding herds of each of these breeds were maintained at stations in the Highland Sourveld and the Valley Thornveld. At weaning, half of the progeny of eac...

Thirty-six crossbred cows were used in a 2 X 2 factorial arrangement in a randomized block design to evaluate forages from two cropping systems (1 and 2) and feeding levels (ad libitum, (Level1)) or 80 percent of ad libitum (Level 2) on milk yield, live weight, and reproductive performance. Crops...

Four experiments were carried out in which supplements of locally available proteinaceous by-products were given to young, mainly pre-weaned calves that ranged in initial weight from 30 to 90 kg. The experiments were part of a programme designed to establish practical and economical nutrition int...

Africa may be broadly characterized into five ecological zones; Arid, semi-arid, sub-humid, humid and highland. Each zone has characteristic socio-economic systems which are reflected in the livestock husbandry. The socio-economic systems of the arid zones have to be highly mobile and able to cop...

A total of 108 weaned Menz (n=39), 50% Awassi X Menz (n=38) and 75% Awassi X Menz (n=31) sheep genotypes of two sexes were randomly allocated into two nutrition levels (supplemented and non-supplemented) and two anthelmintic treatments (treated and untreated) to investigate their differential res...
