Some Malawi local goats were mated to Saanen bucks and others to local bucks under the same management at the Bunda College farm. Gestation length, birthweights, weaning weight, weight gain per day and weights at one year were observed and compared.The average gestation length of local dams sired...

The performance of randomly selected Malawian local goats and their Saanen crosses was compared. The average litter size at kidding was 1.35 and 1.52, respectively. Birth weights, 12-week weights and weaning weights at 17 weeks were respectively 2.2 kg (SE = 0.12 kg), 8.2 kg (SE=0.41 kg) and 10.7...

Milk yield and milk composition of local (LL) and Boer (BB) goats, and their crosses (BL) were estimated over 2 kidding seasons for 12 weeks of lactation using 3 techniques, i.e. kid-suckling, hand-milking and oxytocin + hand-milking. The average daily gain (ADG) and milk conversion of kids were ...

In a 2x2 factorial trial involving 80 does kept under traditional management, the milking potential of the indigenous Malawi goat was determined and the effects of supplementary feeding examined. Feeding was based on grazed indigenous pasture, largely Hyparrhenia spp only and with supplementation...
