This paper focuses on the background, approaches, and progress made over the last three years by the Crop-Animal Systems Research Network (CASREN) project carried out by ILRI in partnership with national agricultural research systems (NARS) in China, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. ...
This document presents the results of a study conducted to assess the constraints to production and research opportunities for enhancing the contribution of livestock in crop-animal systems in agro-ecological zones of South Asia. The study involves six countries: Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal,...
In the next two decades, the demand for animal products will more than double. The concluding paper provides some considered predictions on the future for crop animal systems in Asia, as a consequence of this trend. Although meat and eggs from non ruminants in industrial systems will continue to ...
Presents the historical overview, current status and future prospects of goat and sheep production in the tropics.
