Ojango, Julie M.K.Audho, James O.Oyieng, EdwinRadeny, Maren A.O.Kimeli, PhilipRecha, John W.M.Muigai, Anne W.T.[Assessing actors in rural markets of sheep and goats in the Nyando Basin of western Kenya: A key to improving productivity from smallholder farms]Assessing actors in rural markets of sheep and goats in the Nyando Basin of western Kenya: A key to improving productivity from smallholder farms

Improving productivity of sheep and goats (i.e. small ruminants- SR) under smallholder farming systems faced with challenges of unfavourable climatic events has been identified as one means of enhancing livelihoods of communities living in these areas. Interventions are targeted through clusters ...

Ojango, Julie M.K.Baltenweck, IsabelleMrode, Raphael A.Muigai, Anne W.T.Haile, AynalemOkeyo Mwai, Ally[Integrating socio-economic attributes of rural communities in small ruminant improvement programs in sub-Saharan Africa]Integrating socio-economic attributes of rural communities in small ruminant improvement programs in sub-Saharan Africa

Indigenous sheep of Kenya are very important to resource-poor farmers and pastoralists. They have over time adapted to the harsh environmental conditions of the arid and semi-arid lands where they are faced with challenges of persistent droughts, diseases, conflicts and poor nutrition, yet show ...


Muigai, Anne W.T.Okeyo Mwai, AllyKwallah, A.K.Mburu, D.Hanotte, Olivier H.[Characterization of sheep populations of Kenya using microsatellite markers: Implications for conservation and management of indigenous sheep populations]Characterization of sheep populations of Kenya using microsatellite markers: Implications for conservation and management of indigenous sheep populations

The genetic variation in 10 indigenous Caucasian sheep breeds was studied with 14 micro-satellite loci in order to determine the genetic diversity among and between the breeds. Five breeds from Asia, five breeds from Europe and one breed from Africa, were included in order to study any relationsh...


Hirbo, J.Muigai, Anne W.T.Naqvi, A.N.Rege, J.E.O.Hanotte, Olivier H.[The genetic diversity of trans-caucasian native sheep breeds]The genetic diversity of trans-caucasian native sheep breeds

The Nyando Basin covering two counties of western Kenya, namely Kericho and Kisumu has been adversely affected by climate change. Prolonged droughts, followed by heavy and unpredictable rainfall that causes flooding has led to land denudation, crop and livestock losses (IPCC, 2007; Onyango et al....

The Nyando Basin in Kenya, a rich agricultural flood plain around Lake Victoria with a population density exceeding 400 persons per square kilometre, has been adversely affected by extreme weather events that include droughts and floods. Literacy levels are low. Land sizes are small, generally le...
