Although this document is intended to report research on Vertisols, livestock do not respect this boundary as they graze communal land. Hence a general situation of the available feed resources in the highlands is also highlighted which is followed by specific efforts of collaborative partners of...

Thirty-six crossbred cows were used in a 2 X 2 factorial arrangement in a randomized block design to evaluate forages from two cropping systems (1 and 2) and feeding levels (ad libitum, (Level1)) or 80 percent of ad libitum (Level 2) on milk yield, live weight, and reproductive performance. Crops...

The effects of two cropping systems (1 and 2) on grain and fodder yields and nutritive quality of the fodder were studied in a randomized complete block desgin experiment over a period of two cropping years. Crops and crop combinations in system 1 were oat-vetch, wheat-trifolium, teff straw, and ...

Out of 6.5 million tons of crop residues produced each year in Ethiopia, over a million tons of straw comes from barley. There is substantial under utilization of barley straw as animal feed. The major constraints on the use of barley straw as animal feed are low nutrient content, low voluntary i...
