Describes a dynamic & stochastic simulation model, specifying its driving variables & validating it for production conditions in a study area in Botswana. Compares the simulated performance of Tswana & Simmental x Tswana cattle, analysing economic trade-offs between milk & meat production under v...

Considerable progress has been made in defining and measuring criteria of trypanotolerance since the late 1970's, when ILCA, FAO and UNEP worked with researchers in 18 West and Central African countries to show clear relationship between level of trypanosomiasis risk and animal performance. Durin...

This paper reviews studies on the relationships between trypanotolerance and performance of cattle, and the genetics of trypanotolerance traits. Results of these studies are used to discuss the practical possibilities of increasing trypanotolerance through selection.
