Postpartum ovarian activity was investigated in dairy cows in urban/peri urban dairy production systems in and around Addis Ababa using milk progesterone profiles. Nineteen crossbred (Friesian x Zebu) dairy cows which calved between March and June 1998 were used for the study. Milk samples were c...

The study was conducted to evaluate the reproduction efficiency of zebu and crossbred cows measured by the inter-estrus and inter-service intervals using data from Bako Agricultural Research Center. The overall mean inter-estrus and inter-service intervals were 44.3 t 0.85 and 49.1 t 1.24 days, r...

Insufficient feed supply is a major limiting factor for milk production in the tropics. The
aim of this study was to assess the effects of feeding level on live-weight and performance
of Zebu (Boran) and crossbred (Boran

Twenty-seven Boran and 37 Boran x Friesian bulls, weaned at six months of age, were allocated to either receive supplementary diet (16 percent crude protein and 10.8 MJ/kg DM energy) during the dry season or to serve as unsupplemented controls until 21 months of age. Body weight measurements were...
