Livestock under holdings of low-resource producers in the tropics are faced with a variety of feeds that are qualitatively and quantitatively deficient in available nutrients. Emerging practices of hay-making and inter-cropping of cereal with legumes have improved feed quality, but the lack of ap...

A study was carried out to investigate the reproductive management and reproductive performance of dairy herds in the intensively managed urban and peri-urban dairy production systems of the Addis Ababa milk shed between September 1997 and January 1998. Fifteen dairy farms from intra-urban, 20 ...

Draft oxen have been used extensively by smallholders in many crop-livestock mixed production systems. In these system, crop production is totally dependent on oxen power. Other livestock have also been used for draft purposes depending on locality and circumstances. However, improved efficiency ...
