Animal Source Foods such as milk, meat and eggs are essential for human nutrition. Demand is increasing and this offers multiple opportunities for livestock producers. However, sustainable productivity and efficiency gains are needed, addressing both seasonal and inter-annual variation. Feed is a...

Despite the profound livestock importance in eastern Africa, livestock productivity remains low attributable to a number of challenges. One of the major drawbacks is lack of quality feeds and forages. This results in poor animal performance and suboptimal use of resources. Intertwined with this l...

In a short-term improved fallow for crop-livestock farming systems of subhumid west Africa, rotational effects from a range of forage legumes on a subsequent maize crop were studied at two sites in south-west Nigeria. Nutrient (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) export from the fallows in the fo...

The available world collection consisting of 257 accessions of the tropical pasture legume Centrosema brasilianum (L.) Benth. was assessed between 1993 and 1995 in northern Nigeria to complement existing knowledge on the genetic diversity of this species and to identify accessions with high agron...

Gender is crucial for research on forages. We need to look at at gender aspects of forage production, such as labour-conservation techniques that may affect women and youth the most. Women and youth may have opportunities in feed processing and in forage-seed production. We also need to understan...
