Trypanosomosis is one of the major constraints on animal production in areas of Africa which have the greatest potential for significant increases in domestic livestock populations and livestock productivity. While the eradication of trypanosomosis from the entire continent is an unrealistic goal...

Trypanotolerance, an option for sustainable livestock production in areas at risk from trypanosomiasis
Reports the productivity levels achieved by grade Boran cattle maintained by chemoprophylaxis at Mkwaja ranch (Tanzania) from 1973 to 1982. Analyses the effects of year and season of calving on birth, cow age, calf sex and area & location of herd on performance of the environmental influences. Ev...
Reproductive performance, mortality, growth, and culling and replacement rates based on 20000 calving records were evaluated for grade Boran beef cattle maintained with trypanosomiasis risk in Tanzania. Under ranching conditions, over a 10-year period in this area of high Glossina moistens morsi...
Evaluates in detail how environmental and stress factorts affect trypanosome infection in N'Dama cows and their calves, the linkages with curative drug treatment given under the management regime prevailing, the linkages with anaemia control as measured by packed red cell volume (PCV), and the re...
