The effect of genotype (50%, 75% and 87.50, levels of milk (2 and 3 1/day) and types of housing (Barn and Hutch) on growth and survival were examined using thirty four crossbred calves Boran x Freisian (Bos Taurus x Bos indicus). Calves had access to a complete diet supplement (180 g/kg CP and 10...

Autor: Trail, J.C.M.

Presents findings of trials carried out in Uganda to characterize the indigenous Ankole, Boran and zebu cattle breeds as straightbreds for maternal traits and in crosses with exotic Angus and Red Poll males; includes data on calf crop, preweaning viability and calf weight at birth, weaning and at...

The effect of trypanosomosis on the resumption of postpartum ovarian function and oestrus activity was studied in small East African zebu cows maintained under natural trypanosomosis challenge. This was done through the determination of milk progesterone levels using the enzyme linked immunosor...

Research has been undertaken since 1986 in the Ghibe valley, southwest Ethiopia, monitoring approximately 840 village East African Zebu cattle monthly to assess the effects of trypanosomiasis on productivity. The average monthly trypanosome prevalence between 1986 and 1989 was about 30 percent. M...

The effect on body composition and carcass components of highland Zebu Bas indicus) oxen fed tef 'j' straw as basal diet and varying level of wheat bran as supplement was investigated. Fifty four castrated Zebu oxen, of 5-6 years age and similar body condition were allocated to three treatment gr...

An average of 840 East African Zebu cattle have been monitored in the Ghibe valley, south west Ethiopia since 1986. Despite a high prevalence of drug resistance, regular Berenil treatment appears to have maintained these cattle at reasonable levels of productivity. However, when corrected for fre...

Two roughage-based diets composed of equal parts of roughage and concentrate were fed to 45 crossbred Friesian X Zebu (Boran) calves. The roughages were either oat-vetch hay or barley straw. 25 animals were fed the diet based on oat-vetch hay and 20 the barley straw-based diet. Within these group...

Draught animals are the main integrative links between crop and livestock production systems in the highlands of Ethiopia. The highlands comprise only 40% of the country's total land area but carry 79% of livestock heads and 80% of the human population results in higher pressure on the arable lan...

It is useful to be able to estimate the incidence of new infections in cattle exposed to a high challenge of drug resistance trypanosomes; with this information the impact of an intervention that improves the control of trypanosomosis can be better understood. Approximately 750 Ethiopian Highland...

Abstract]Epidemiological analysis of trypanocidal drug resistance in Zebu cattle in Ghibe, southwest Ethiopia. Abstract

Studies the efficacy of chemoprophylaxis for the control of trypanosomiasis on 700 heads of East African Zebu Cattle maintained in village herds in a tsetse-infested area at Muhaka, Coast province of Kenya. Shows the effect of trypanocidal drugs and time on trypanosome prevalence, and the effect ...
