Conference Paper 1998

Autor: Staal, Steven J. Omore, Amos O.

The use of farmer-recall in field data collection typically allows for relatively quick and low-cost information gathering. Such data can often be gathered using a simple cross-sectional survey, in many cases requiring only a single farm visit. In return, however, there may be an increase in meas...

In European dairy herds lactation curves are conventionally described by a gamma function such as that of Wood (1969). High yields in early lactation mean that more frequent calving leads to increased annual milk production (AMP) per cow. Thus, the optimum calving interval in the UK is 365 days (...

Describing agroecosystems and assessing their sustainability and health has become of great interest to researchers, Development agents and communities. Such assessments are frequently carried out using a group of carefully chosen attributes, known as indicators. This was the approach adopted in ...

Based on the promising results obtained from on-station, the dairy-draught study was further taken to on-farm for testing it under the Ethiopian smallholder farmers' management conditions. The study was undertaken in Holetta and Addis Alem areas between 1993 and 1997. Mean daily milk yield was si...

Although soil fertility is recognized as a primary constraint to agricultural production in developing countries, use of fertilizer in Sub-Saharan Africa is declining. Smallholder farmers still rely heavily on livestock manure for soil fertility management. To explore the determinants of soil f...
