The effects on crossbred steer liveweight gain of alternating the same quantities of Napier grass and barley straw at five day intervals over a 40 day period was studied (Sanda et al, 1999. These animals lost significantly more weight (p<0.05) than animals on one and ten day frequencies of alter...

A major constraint on smallholder dairy farms in Kenya is inadequate feed supply resulting in low productivity. In Kiambu District of the Central Highlands, principal feed resources are cultivated Napier grass, roadside grass and fodder from maize, including stover and high quality thinnings cut ...

A Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) was conducted with smallholder dairy farmers in the central highlands of Kenya, where smallholder mixed farming systems predominate. Shortage of fodder is the principal problem as a result of decreasing farm size and, therefore, cattle are rarely fed ad libit...

Farmer field schools (FFS) are based on an innovative, participatory and interactive learning approach. The FFS approach was developed by FAO in South East Asia as a way for small-scale rice farmers to investigate and learn for themselves the skills required for, and the benefits to be obtained f...

This paper describes the history of the destruction of the sustainable crop-livestock systems of the high altitude areas of Bolivia. One result of this is the shortage of forage for livestock. One possible solution to the soil degradation on sloping lands is the establishment of live barriers wit...

Adoption studies on fodders legume technologies have shown that spread of the technology is significantly enhanced by informal methods of dissemination especially farmer-to-farmer extension. It is not known which type of farmers are involved in this dissemination. The objective of this study was ...

Traditional studies of agricultural technology adoption have long been constrained by a limited ability to include spatially-differentiated data. Typically, crude proxies or location dummy variables are used to approximate spatial effects. GIS tools, however, now allow spatially explicit data t...
