This investigation was conducted at two experimental sites on the National Range Research Station, Kiboko, to evaluate forage yield, leaf-to-stem ratio, crown area, tiller number. regrowth height, forage digestibility, and crude protein content of six native range grasses following defoliation at...

Influence of frequency and itensity of clipping on forage yield, crude protein content and digestibility of six Kenyan range grasses.
The study was conducted in Kenya to determine the relationship of fecal nitrogen, fecal nitrogen fractions and fecal nitrogen ratio to organic matter intake, dietary crude protein, in vivo dry matter digestibility and vitro organic matter digestibility. Two sites were chosen for the study based u...

Development of a nutritional profiling system for free-ranging livestock in major Agro-ecological zones of sub-Saharan Africa.
Evaluates the usefulness of direct data collection from low-flying light aircraft for inventory & monitoring animal population & other rangeland features, viz. water bodies, vegetation structure & greenness and human settlements, for planning and management purposes.

An approach to evaluating techniques for vegetation surveys on arid rangelands
To support improved rangeland resource management and monitoring for nomadic pastoralists in northern Kenya, we used a task-based mobile application to incentivize pastoralists provide more than 100,000 surveys containing information on local rangeland, water and livestock resources. In this cont...

BecA-ILRI Hub 2017 annual report: Unlocking agricultural prosperity in Africa
Seedlings of Artemisia herba-alba grown in glasshouse were watered with differing salinities (0, 150, 250 or 350 mM NaCl) and watering frequencies of 3, 7, 14 or 21 days for a period of 6 weeks. At the end of the study, plant survival, dry matter yield, biomass allocation (shoot and root), leaf a...
