To investigate the effects of irrigation on land cover changes and the risk of selected zoonotic pathogens, we carried out a study in irrigated, pastoral and riverine areas in the eastern Kenya. Activities implemented included secondary data analyses to determine land use and land cover (LULC) ch...

Humans have never been healthier, wealthier or more numerous. Yet, present success may be at the cost of future prosperity and in some places, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, poverty persists. Livestock keepers, especially pastoralists, are over-represented among the poor. Poverty has been main...

Aflatoxins continue to be a food safety problem globally, especially in developing regions. A significant amount of effort and resources have been invested in an attempt to control aflatoxins. However, these efforts have not substantially decreased the prevalence nor the dietary exposure to aflat...

Over 60 per cent of the newly identified infectious diseases that have affected people
over the past few decades have been caused by pathogens originating from animals
or animal products. In agricultural areas that use more water, people face increased
risk of infectious diseases, especially thro...

Managing the health risks associated with agriculture: An overview of research by the International Livestock Research Institute
The International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) was created in the early 1990s,
and, like CGIAR crop centres, its major goal was increasing productivity. Animal
health was believed to cause about one-fourth of the yield gaps seen in developing
countries, but almost all research centreed on ...
