Ten Boran and 12 Boran X Friesian bulls with a mean (+standard error of the mean) age and body weight of 20.2+0.5 months and 225.5+2.5 kg were used over a 1 year period to determine the effect of plane of nutrition and season on body and testicular growth and on semen traits. Within genotype, bul...

Gondal and extragonadal sperm reserves were determined in testicular and epididymal tissues obtained from ten Small East African Zebu (SEAZ), ten unimproved Borana and nine improved Boran bulls. Bulls were mature and were between 6 and 8 years of age. Body weight and scrotal circumference differe...

A total of 64 bull calves, composed of 27 Boran and 37 Boran X Friesian, were weaned at 6 months of age and divided into supplement or control groups within breed. All bulls were kept in one paddock and grazed on natural pasture. Supplement groups received 1.5 kg per head day of a diet containing...

The efficiency of cattle breeding and production depends to a large extent on the reproductive performance of the herd, with the bull playing a major role. Large differences in fertilizing ability between bulls exists, and such differences are due to the characteristics of individual bulls rather...
