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...

The first part of this study evaluated contents of hydrolysable tannins (HT) and condensed tannins (CT) of 65 accessions of tagasaste. In the second part, the effects of harvesting stage and growing season on the contents of HT, CT and alkaloids in different plant parts of the widely grown tagasa...

Tagasaste (Chamaecytisus palmensis), a multipurpose fodder tree, is highly productive in the tropical highlands. The forage has high crude protein (CP) concentrations but is reported to have low intake by ruminants. This study investigated the effects of plant harvest stage and feeding management...

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...

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...

The African Chicken Genetic Gains (ACGG) project was started in 2014 and implemented over 5 years in Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Nigeria. The program’s vision is to increase smallholder chicken production and productivity growth as a pathway out of poverty in sub-Saharan Africa. The program was led b...
