Nutrition of draught oxen in semi-arid West Africa. 3. Effect of body condition prior to work and weight losses during work on food intake and work output

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

Eighteen oxen were allotted to three treatment groups according to their body condition: poor, medium and good. Work output, speed, live weight and body condition were measured during 7 weeks when animals worked 4 days/ week, 4 h/day, pulling loads equivalent to 12.5 kg/100 kg live weight. The an...

Nutrition of draught oxen in semi-arid West Africa. 2. Effect of work on intake, apparent digestibility and rate of passage of food through the gastro-intestinal tract in draught oxen given crop residues

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...

Conference Paper 2002

Meeting the demand for livestock feeds in developing countries

Autor: Fernández Rivera, S. Pezo, Danilo A. Devendra, C.

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 ...

Report 2005

Nutritional constraints to grazing ruminants in the millet-cowpea- livestock farming system of the Sahel

Autor: Fernández Rivera, S. Hiernaux, Pierre H.Y. Williams, Timothy O. Turner, M. Schlecht, E. Salla, A. Ayantunde, Augustine A. Sangare, M.

Growing pearl millet and cowpea in combination with raising ruminant livestock is widely practiced in the Sahel. In this farming system, livestock feeding depends mostly on rangeland, fallows and cropland grazing. Nutritional constraints to grazing ruminants stem primarily from feed scarcity and ...

Influence of access to a browse grove by sheep on animal nutrition and nutrient cycling

Autor: Sangare, M. Fernández Rivera, S. Hiernaux, Pierre H.Y. Pandey, V.S.

The influence of 0, 60 or 120 minutes of access to a grove of either Ziziphus mauritiana (Ziziphus) or Combretum aculeatum (Combretum) on forage intake and digestibility, animal growth and nutrient excretion was determined using forty intact Oudah sheep grazing for 7 h day-1 on poor quality dry s...
