Feed resources and nutrition constitute the principal technical constraints to ruminant production in Asia. Four main categories of feed resources are potentially available for use in smallholder crop-animal systems. These are pastures (native and improved grasses, herbaceous legumes and multi-pu...

Strategies for improved feed utilisation and ruminant production systems are discussed in the context of the demand-led processes for foods of animal origin, in which the contribution of ruminants is lagging. Increased productivity in the future will need to come from improved per animal performa...
