This paper evaluates the effect of livestock intensification through crossbreeding for dairying in Bhutan, where crossbreeding policies aim to improve smallholder livelihoods. It is also expected that crossbreeding will reduce dairy imports, and will reduce the environmental impact on forests and...

In a comparison of water intake of Boran and Angus-Boran steers over three years, the crossbreds consumed more water per head than the Borans, particularly during the hotter months. There was little difference between the groups on the basis of intake per unit liveweight, and intake per unit live...

Under more intensified cropping conditions agriculture will face increasing incidences of soil-borne plant pests and pathogens, leading to increasingly higher yield losses world-wide. Soil-borne disease complexes, in particular, are especially difficult to control. In order to better understand s...

A survey of BCMV in 6 municipalities of western Antioquia, Colombia, confirmed an epidemic in this region. However, planting with virus-free seed and the eradication of BCMV-infected plants during the first 30-40 days after planting were not effective in controlling the disease. Three BCMV-resist...

It is important to analyse the impacts of climate change on target production system. However, it is more important to deduce possible adaptation strategies so that the research and developmental policies can be guided to meet the challenges of climate change. Impacts of climate change on the sor...

Boran (Bos indicus) heifers were immunised by infection with local Theileria parva parva, T p lawrencei and T mutans stocks and treated with parvaquone and later exposed to natural tick and tick borne disease challenge in the Trans-Mara Division of Kenya. The Theileria species parasites in the ch...

A comparison was made of the growth curves for early and late eruptors (steers whose eruption age of the first incisor pair was less than the mean, and greater than the mean respectively). From birth to 195 weeks early eruptors were consistently heavier than late eruptors (P
