Systematic epidemiological studies to identify and resolve health constraints to smallholder dairy production in coastal lowland Kenya
The Kenya coastal region has a large, unsatisfied market for milk and dairy products. Between 1988 and 1994, a research project, closely linked to extension, identified and addressed technical constraints that limit smallholder dairy Development in the region. Methodological approaches are outlin...
