Discusses the productivity of N;Dama cattle at Kolo and Mushie ranches (Zaire). Includes data on productivity under zero (Kolo) and high (Mushie) trypanosomiasis risk (1984-86). Compares the productivity of Boran and N'Dama cattle under ranch management at five sites in Africa.
Examines the quantity of past research work and its value in determining the comparative performance of breeds in Africa using cattle as an example. Describes ILCA resources available for analysis and interpretation of field data.
Reports the viability, reproduction and associated growth rates achieved by grade Boran cattle maintained by chemoprophylaxis at Mkwaja Ranch in Tanzania, over the ten years, from 1973 to 1983.
The prevalence, species and intensity of trypanosome parasitaemia in different livestock species, breeds, age groups and management systems are reported from Togo for trypanosotolerant sheep and goats in the Sokode area.

Three dam breeds, the indigenous Ankole and zebu, and the Boran from Kenya were mated to Boran Angus and Red Poll sires to investigate the relationship between dam body weight and progeny performance. Under artificial insemination, at least 10% fewer cows were detected on heat than under natural ...
Dorset Horn rams were used on East African Blackhead sheep in western Uganda in mutton production through improved lamb growth. The crossbred lambs were significantly heavier than the indigenous at birth. From birth to weaning at five months, the growth rates of both types were identical, being 0...
Provides a brief history of the developmet of IDEAS (the ILCA Data entry and Analysis system) and presents findings from a questionnaire recently used to users to assess the uptake of IDEAS in African Production systems during the first years of its release.
Matching information on animal health and performance aspects was collected from 255 N'dama post-weaners from September 1986 to December 1991. Records covered for each animal a two years period from weaning at 10 months of age until 34 months of age. Curative trypanocidal drug treatment was given...
