Effect of dietary supplementation and endoparasitic control on the reproductive and productive performance of Menz-type sheep
Generally two types of indigenous sheep can be differentiated the blackhead Persian or Somali sheep, a fat ramped sheep if the northern and North-eastern parts of Kenya, and the Red Masai, a fat-tailed sheep, more frequently to be seen in central and southern Kenya. Up grading of red Masai or bla...

Six adult African-type hair sheep (BW = 40.3 +/- 6.3 kg) fitted with ruminal and duodenal cannulas were subjected to four treatments. Sheep were offered basal diets at a rate of 80 g of DM/kg of metabolic BW (equivalent to ad libitum access) consisting either of a low-quality grass hay (Brachiari...

Livestock characterization projects in developing regions are characterized by a mere physical description of traditionally recognized populations or a purely academic genetic description of populations. However, characterization of livestock resources is meant to serve the purpose of developing ...

Community-based sheep breeding: a new approach to genetic improvement
A feeding trial with sheep was carried out at the Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical (CIAT) in Colombia to investigate the concept of using mixtures of sun-dried tropical shrub legumes to dilute tannin levels in the diet and improve nitrogen (N) utilisation by ruminants. Intake, digesti...
