An on-line survey on the state of existing dairy data, dairy improvement infrastructure and human capacity in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) was undertaken with the aim of assessing whether the state of existing animal recording, dairy improvement methods and key issues facing dairy production together...

Current situations of animal data recording, dairy improvement infrastructure, human capacity and strategic issues affecting dairy production in sub-Saharan Africa
Functioning national livestock performance recording and monitoring systems are scarce in Sub-Saharan Africa, yet improvements and changes in any livestock sector heavily depend on the availability of information and accurate data on animal characteristics and their performance within different p...

Innovative application of ICT tools for paperless data capture and feedback in smallholder dairy production systems: The Platform for African Dairy Genetic Gains (ADGG)
The lack of data recording in smallholder dairy cattle system implies that the availability of molecular data could offer some quick wins in terms of using the genomic information in genomic evaluation and therefore genomic selection (GS). Initial studies have reported low to medium accuracy of g...
