Body measurements and slaughter weight of body component (carcass and edible non-carcass) of 63 zebu oxen were used in this trial. Out of these 9 of them were slaughtered at the initial stage of the experiment. The remaining 54 oxen were allocated to various levels of feeding or plane of nutritio...

Draft oxen have been used extensively by smallholders in many crop-livestock mixed production systems. In these system, crop production is totally dependent on oxen power. Other livestock have also been used for draft purposes depending on locality and circumstances. However, improved efficiency ...

Variations in availability and nutritional quality of feed resources in the tropics affect cattle production under smallholder production systems. This results in undernutrition of cattle because of fluctuations in feed and nutrient supply. The term undernutrition is very complex and not clearly ...
