Ruminants adapt to periodic fluctuation in feed resources by accumulating fat stores during favourable periods. Thus, genetic variations, among ruminant genotypes, in the capa city to deposit fat could be exploited through breeding to improve animal productivity in traditional tropical production...

The effects of breed and dietary protein supplementation on the development of resistance and resilience to gastrointestinal nematode parasites (endoparasites) were examined in artificially infected Horro and Menz lambs from 4 to 12 months of age. The factorial design involved two breeds, two inf...

In Ethiopia, the agricultural sector is a cornerstone of the economic and social life. The sector employs 80-85 per cent of the population and contributes 40 per cent to total GDP. Smallholder farmers dominate the agricultural sector. The highlands hold about 95 per cent of the cropped area and s...

Between and within-breed variations in feed intake and digestive efficiency, in terms of the percentage of feed dry matter (DM) retained in the body out of that consumed (ADMD), in 452 Menz and Horro sheep were estimated. Average daily concentrate DM was about 278 g/day in both breeds, whereas da...

Genetic resistance to artificially acquired gastrointestinal parasites was studied in 49 Horro and 103 Menz breeds of Ethiopia. The experimental design involved 2 breeds, 2 infection treatments (Infected vs Non infected) and 3 dietary protein treatments using 152 lambs assigned to the 12 treatmen...

In vitro and in vivo evaluation of non-conventional feed resources was carried out in the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), Debre Zeit Station, Ethiopia, using shee10 non-conventional feed types commonly used by urban and peri-urban livestock farmers were obtained from the farmi...
