Six herds of N'Dama cattle exposed to low to medium tsetse challenge in areas surrounding the village of Keneba in the Kiang West District of The Gambia, were monitored. The degree of anaemia, as measured by PCV in 2- to 5-year-old female N'Dama cattle during the first month of detectable trypano...

The determination of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) concentrations in 49 native Andean potato varieties revealed significant genotypic variation. Comparison of mineral concentrations of 37 of these germplasm accessions grown in two highland locations further revealed significant variation due to environ...

The contemporary concern about anthropogenic release of greenhouse gas (GHG) into the environment and the contribution of livestock to this phenomenon have sparked animal scientists’ interest in predicting methane (CH4) emissions by ruminants. We contend that improving the adequacy of mathematica...

Indigenous crops, such as jute mallow (Corchorus olitorius L.) have high potential for improving nutrient efficiency and income source diversification of farmers in sub-Saharan Africa. A better understanding of plant responses to nitrogen (N) is essential in shedding light on the trend towards in...

Chickpea is the world’s third most important food legume next to bean and soybean. Ethiopia is the largest producer of chickpea in Africa. However, chickpea production is very low due to poor soil fertility, poor nodulation and lack of inoculation with effective rhizobia. In this study a total of...

It was envisaged that the inclusion of treated distiller ’ s spent grain ( DSG ) to
yam fl our might increase its nutritional value, with the aim of reducing nutritional
diseases in communities consuming yam as a staple. Hence, yam fl our
was fortifi ed with DSG at 5–35%. The effects of this fort...
