In many African cultures, insects are part of the diet of humans and domesticated animals. Compared to conventional food and feed sources, insects have been associated with a low ecological foot print because fewer natural resources are required for their production. To this end, the Food and Agr...

This paper presents an economic analysis of the use of drugs (isometamidium and diminazene) in controlling African Animal Trypanosomosis (AAT), a serious disease of cattle and small ruminants in villages that exhibit resistance to isometamidium in Burkina Faso and Mali in West Africa. The study a...

Animal food sources provide human beings with minerals considerably in adequate quantities. Fish is an indispensable reliable source of nutrients, as aquaculture is a sector that is fast growing and which provides 50% of the world’s fish production. However, fish production is hampered by the inc...

An international multi-disciplinary team of scientists, led by the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), tackled the problem of bovine trypanosomosis and the development of drug resistance in West Africa, inter alia, by the promotion of rational drug use (RDU) principles. These princ...

Trypanocidal drugs are the most commonly purchased and used livestock input by resource-poor farmers in sub-Saharan Africa. The effective use of trypanocidal drugs by smallholder farmers is threatened by the development of widespread resistance. This is a particular concern for smallholder crop-l...

[IN ENGLISH] In Africa and elsewhere, the role and influence of communication in diffusion of technological innovations, as well as in the success of development projects, are well known and documented. However, most of the studies are carried out in agriculture and human health fields. In animal...

Fish farming is faced with the challenge of high cost of feeds because of the cost of high quality protein needed for formulation of the feeds. Thus, there is urgent need for alternative protein sources. The effects of substituting freshwater shrimp meal (FWSM) with black soldier fly larvae meal ...

n 2008, the invasive tomato red spider mite Tetranychus evansi (Acari: Tetranychidae), a pest of sola- naceous crops, was identi fi ed for the fi rst time as the cause of serious damage on tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum L.; Solanaceae) crops in Benin. Since then, frequent outbreaks have been obser...

Cross sectional surveys (2002-2004) achieved in 89 villages, carried on 5474 cattle and 1908 tse tse flies (G. palpalis: 53%; G. tachinoides: 45% and G. morsitans: 2%) have been captured. Following these investigations, several suspected villages have been chosen for longitudinal surveys in order...

ABSTRACT IN FRENCH: Une série de trois enquêtes longitudinales sur des bovins a été conduite entre Août 2003 et Avril 2004 autour de Sikasso au Mali. Ces enquêtes avaient pour objectif de faire une étude épidémiologique saisonnière des trypanosomoses animales dans un contexte de chimiorésistance ...
