Journal Article 1997

Autor: Fall, Abdou Pearson, R.A. Lawrence, P.R. Fernández Rivera, S.

Two experiments were conducted to investigate the relationships between work and intake and digestion of food by draught oxen given millet stover. In the first experiment, intake of millet stover, water intake, live weight, plasma concentrations of triiodothyronine, thyroxine and urea-nitrogen we...

Sxity-four Azawak male calves were used to study the effect of nocturnal grazing (NG) and supplementation (S) in the dry season on forage and water intake, faecal output, eating time and weight changes of cattle in the Sahel. Treatments were factorial combinations of four levels of NG (0, 2, 4 an...

The livestock revolution is occurring but it is being preceded by the feed revolution because of the substantial mount of feed required to supply by the increased animal population. However, the opportunities to meet the demand for feed depend on the existing production systems. This paper looks ...

This paper demonstrates the usefulness and importance of an holistic approach in analysing complex production systems. It determines the optimum stocking rate and species mix that will maximise profit and compare this with the biological optimum stocking rate and species mix and; the effects of o...

The importance of feed in increasing livestock productivity and benefits from livestock is stressed. Four major feed resources are identified: pastures, common property resources, forests, and fallow lands; planted forages; crop residues; and concentrate and agricultural by-products. There is a s...

Mixed farming systems, combining crop and livestock activities, hold considerable promise for improved agricultural productivity and environmental conservation in semi-arid West Africa. Increasing population pressure and climatic changes have combined to render long-fallow periods less feasible a...

Night corralling of livestock directly in crop fields during the dry season contributes to nutrient cycling for the benefit of crops. Rangeland grazing and corralling livestock on selected croplands result in a spatial transfer of organic matter and nutrients from rangelands to the corralling sit...
