Larbi, AsamoahThomas, D.Ochang, J.[Growth rate of steers grazing Desmodium intortum protein banks in southern Ethiopia]Growth rate of steers grazing Desmodium intortum protein banks in southern Ethiopia

Rapid growth of the human and livestock populations in sub-Saharan Africa is creating unprecedented increases in food and feed demands. These population pressures on a fixed landbases are likely to promote severe competition for resources and drive agriculture progressively towards intensificatio...


Smith, Jimmy W.Naazie, A.Larbi, AsamoahAgyemang, K.Tarawali, Shirley A.[Integrated crop-livestock systems in sub-Saharan Africa: An option or an imperative?]Integrated crop-livestock systems in sub-Saharan Africa: An option or an imperative?

A study was conducted in the humid-forest, forest-savanna, and Guinea savanna zones of West Africa from 1993 to 1999 to examine the effect of managing crop residues from cereal-legume cropping systems for mulch and fodder for sheeIncreasing the proportion of total crop residues produced from a un...


Larbi, AsamoahSmith, Jimmy W.Adekunle, I.O.Agyare, W.A.Gbaraneh, L.D.Tanko, R.J.Akinlade, J.Omokaye, A.T.Karbo, N.Aboh, N.[Crop residues for mulch and feed in crop livestock systems: Impact on maize grain yield and soil properties in the West African humid forest and Savanna zones]Crop residues for mulch and feed in crop livestock systems: Impact on maize grain yield and soil properties in the West African humid forest and Savanna zones

Forage and seed yields of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) are considered to be joint products by crop-livestock farmers, but forage yield and quality are not currently part of selection criteria in groundnut improvement programs in West Africa. Variations in forage and seed yields of 38 late-maturin...


Larbi, AsamoahDung, D.D.Olorunju, P.E.Smith, Jimmy W.Tanko, R.J.Muhammad, I.R.Adekunle, I.O.[Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) for food and fodder in crop-livestock systems: Forage and seed yields, chemical composition and rumen degradation of leaf and stem fractions of 38 cultivars]Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) for food and fodder in crop-livestock systems: Forage and seed yields, chemical composition and rumen degradation of leaf and stem fractions of 38 cultivars

Current cereal breeding programmes at commodity-oriented research centres emphasize grain yields with little consideration for fodder yield and quality. In farming systems with livestock, the use of varieties with high-grain yields but low stover yields may be rejected by farmers. This study inve...


Agyemang, K.Larbi, AsamoahMurty, D.S.[Evaluating variation in feed attributes of elite grain sorghum cultivars]Evaluating variation in feed attributes of elite grain sorghum cultivars

High population growth and consequent pressure for food is driving agriculture towards greater intensification in West Africa. However, due to inadequate use/availability of farm manure and fertilisers, there is a continuous decline in soil fertility and overall crop productivity. This trend must...
