The aim of this consultation is to explore the practicality of extending technologies that enable the use of dairy cows for multiple purposes, to help develop a regional project to transfer these technologies to relevant countries in east and Central Africa. The focus of the consultation is on ne...

To test the feasibility of the use of dairy cows for draft the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) and the Institute of Agricultural Research (IAR) in Ethiopia have studied a herd of F1 Friesien x Boran crossbred cows on-station over three years together with on-farm experiments an...

Smallholder whole-farm productivity could be increased, and a more sustainable farming system could be established, if dairy cows could also be used for draught work. On-station results over a three-year period indicated that when dairy-draught cows were adequately fed, milk production was not si...

Conference Paper 1998

Autor: Zerbini, E. Gebre-Wold, A. Shapiro, Barry I.

Production performance of cows is an important factor which determines whether cows are adopted for draft power. Working cows could perform at higher levels of efficiency than oxen, but only if nutrient inputs are adequate to meet their greater requirements, and milk production and reproduction a...
