Domesticated in the tropical humid and sub-humid areas of Asia, the indigenous domestic chickens are now found in all agro-ecologies across the world - including temperate, cold, hot and dry environments - where they sustain the livelihood of millions of small-holder farmers. Despite this, the un...

A baseline survey involving 3,714 poultry keeping households (PHH) in 220 villages across five agro-ecological zones was conducted in three countries: Ethiopia (ET), Nigeria (NG) and Tanzania (TZ). The objective was to characterize the smallholder chicken production system and the socio- economic...

A feeding trial, with 4 treatments replicated 3 times, to determine the usefulness of utilizing poultry waste as a protein source for ruminants was conducted using 84 lactating Galla goats which were each offered Chloris gayana hay ad libitum supplemented with 500g of concentrates. Four concentra...

A framework for the impact assessment of disease control strategies for Newcastle disease (ND) is discussed. This includes linking epidemiological and economic data to predict the relative impact of different control interventions at different levels from farm to region. Epidemiological transmis...

The African Chicken Genetic Gains (ACGG) program is built on five “pillars of change”. The first pillar is to make available high producing tropically adapted breeds (hpTAB). The second pillar is to determine farmer-preferred hpTAB. The third pillar is to create public-private partnerships for th...

The red jungle fowl Gallus gallus is the main progenitor of domestic chicken, the commonest livestock species, outnumbering humans by an approximate ratio of six to one. The genetic control for production traits have been well studied in commercial chicken, but the selection pressures underlying ...

Indigenous chicken makes most of the world’s poultry genetic diversity particularly in developing countries. These local breeds, which are well- adapted to extensive husbandry systems and suitable for resource-poor poultry farmers endowed with very limited means, should be thoroughly studied as a...

On-farm test of chicken strains potentially adaptable to semi-scavenging production systems in Sub-Saharan Africa was undertaken in Ethiopia, Tanzania and Nigeria. Twelve (12) chicken strains were tested in 5 zones of each country in 6348 households. Kuroiler and Sasso were common to all countrie...
