The paper is divided into two parts. The first part deals with the maitenance of soil productivity under population pressure, and the second part covers research themes and approaches for maintaining soil productivity in crop-livestock systems. Part one discusses project activities including char...

Gondal and extragonadal sperm reserves were determined in testicular and epididymis tissues obtained from Boran and Boran X Friesian bulls fed either a high or low plane of nutrition diet for a one-year period. The bulls were 32 months of age at castration. Mean body weights did not differ betwee...

The morphological and phenological variations in 46 accessions of Lablab purpureus were evaluated in 2000 and 2001 in Samaru, Zaria in the moist savanna zone of Nigeria. Accessions were classified into various groups according to plant structure, flowering time and pod and seed characters. Based ...

A study was conducted in the Shoa plateau of the north-western Ethiopian highlands to investigate the patterns of dry matter production, the effect of season of establishment, and the best time of harvest for 8 native African and 3 exotic clovers. The native clovers gave higher dry matter yields ...
