Results of trials carried out at the C.R.Z. of Minankro (Bouake) to compare meat production performance of the main bovine populations of the country divided into Baoule, Mere, N'Dama and zebu genotypes. Data on growth, efficiency of ration, adaptability and sanitary behaviour as well as meat qua...
Meat production in the Adamawa was investigated. Comparative data on cattle meat production, seasonal variation of production of indigenous cattle breeds and Fulani x Brahman cattle crossbreeds, with reference to weight gain and carcass yield included.
The various cattle breeds of the Adamawa were described. Discussions and data on animal performance; introduction of exotic breeds and determination of breeding potential of different breeds in the region, specially Adamawa cattle, Red Bororo cattle and Wakwa cattle included.
Studies the effect of dry season on meat production of Adamawa Zebus in Cameroun. Two batches of 35 zebus from the local market were used to work out the losses in meat output during the dry season.
