The study investigated the effect of intercropping cereals (maize, sorghum and wheat) with forage legumes (lablab and clover), planting methods and manure application on cereal grain and fodder dry matter yield and fodder nutritive value. Data collected over a period of three years, indicated tha...

Foods produced from two cereal-legume cropping systems were evaluated in a 250-day growth trial using Friesian X Boran crossbred steers. Crops and crop combinations in cropping system 1 were oat-vetch (Avena sativa-Vicia dasycarpa; OV), wheat-trifolium (Triticum aestivum-Trifolium steudneri; WT),...

Forty-five Bos indicus (Zebu) cows were blocked by body condition (BC) score at calving and allocated by body weight (BW) to three treatments: untreated controls (CON), and progesterone-releasing intra-vaginal device (PRID)-treated at either 45 (T45) or 60 days (T60) post partum. Cows were given ...

Blood samples were collected during the rainy and dry season months from a total of 247 traditionally village managed Muturu cattle randomly selected from five Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Benue State, Nigeria. The blood samples were examined for the presence of Trypanosome organism through p...

Degradability characteristics of oats hay (harvested at milk stage), oats straw, wheat middlings and forage legumes (lablab (Lablab purpureus)) hay, leaves of sesbania (Sesbania sesban) and tagasaste (Chamaecytisus palmensis)) were evaluated in three sheep given native hay supplemented with cott...

A static model for predicting either the growth rates or digestible organic matter (DOMI) required to meet predetermined levels of growth is developed. Parameters in the model were derived using data collected in ILRI-DZ laboratory from 6 growth studies (involving a total of 242 Ethiopian Menz sh...

The paper evaluates the effects of forage type and level of concentrate supplementation on forage intake, diet apparent digestibility, purine excretion and milk production. Twelve crossbred cows (Bos taurus X Bos indicus), in early lactation were allocated to the following six dietary treatments:...

A population of West African Dwarf goats in the subhumid zone of Nigeria was monitored for general characteristics. Brown coat colour was dominant in the flock (about 43 percent). Birth type classification frequencies were 60, 39 and 1 percent single, twin and triplet, respectively. Kid birth wei...
