The paper proposes a theory of technology Development for semi-arid regions. It then evalautes the theory by reviewing the characteristics of technologies successfully introduced into the regions and, with modeling, identifying some constraints to further technology introduction of the type propo...

Kenya has been self-sufficient in dairy products until recently. Early in 1992, however, shortages of dairy products began to occur, particularly in the fresh milk market. Price decontrol of dairy products, among other policy changes, was implemented in May 1992 to improve producer prices and sti...

Autor: Ehui, Simeon K. Shapiro, Barry I.

This paper addresses issues related to the role that livestock research can play in strategies that make up this framework for action, and especially its effective linkage with technology transfer efforts. The experience that ILRI brings to these discussions is mainly from Africa. Topics covered ...

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...

This paper addresses the problem - with increasing values of land, crops and livestock in the semi-arid region, what happens to the livestock component? The conventional wisdom is that abundant land in more remote areas is more conductive to livestock Development than where human population densi...

This study investigates the intra-household consequences of market-oriented dairy production (MODP) based on the introduction of crossbred cows and complementary feed and management technologies. These technologies are being tested on-farm in a collaborative dairy technology project involving the...
