Nineteen herds of cattle (N'Dama, Baoule and Zebu crosses) and 20 flocks of Djallonke and Djallonke x Sahel sheep in the region of Boundiali, northern Cote d'Ivoire, were monitored monthly for body weight, packed red blood cell volume and the presence of trypanosomes in blood over various periods...

This Report compares the efficacies of three anthelmintics, each belonging to one of the broad spectrum groups. It also identifies the genera of resistant worms through larval culture. The study was conducted on a commercial farm where anthelmintics had been used intensively. The results show cle...

Twenty four male goats and 24 rams were individually fed 150g cottonseed-cake/day and, offered 25, 50 or 75 g sorghum stover per kg M daily over 75 days following a preliminary period of 21 days. Stover was offered in chopped form. Live-weight gain of sheep was higher than of goats; there was no ...

The average flock size was 10 in 76 households. Flocks were established through purchase from fellow farmers. Sale for cash need was the farmers' main reason for keeping small ruminants. Periods of food deficit in the household were closely linked to the seasonality of cash need. producer househo...

Presents results of a study conducted to determine the intake and selectivity of sheep and cattle offered sorghum stover in varying quantities and form (either chopped or unchopped). Includes data on live-weight gain, stover offered, stover intake, sheath intake, stem intake and stover refusal of...

One of the alternative control strategies being advocated by scientists and goats raisers is the identification of breeds of goats that are resistant specifically to endoparasites that commonly affect existing breeds and exotic genotypes. Due to the Reported large genetic variation existing among...

Between and within-breed variations in feed intake and digestive efficiency, in terms of the percentage of feed dry matter (DM) retained in the body out of that consumed (ADMD), in 452 Menz and Horro sheep were estimated. Average daily concentrate DM was about 278 g/day in both breeds, whereas da...

A sheep selection programme (PNSO - Programme National de Selection Ovine) was initiated in 1983, in Cote d'Ivoire, with the ojbective of genetically improving growth and adult live weight of the indigenous Djallonke sheep through the selection of rams on body weight basis and distributing the su...

The influence of 0, 60 or 120 minutes of access to a grove of either Ziziphus mauritiana (Ziziphus) or Combretum aculeatum (Combretum) on forage intake and digestibility, animal growth and nutrient excretion was determined using forty intact Oudah sheep grazing for 7 h day-1 on poor quality dry s...
