Mixed crop–livestock systems are the backbone of African agriculture, providing food security and livelihood options for hundreds of millions of people. Much is known about the impacts of climate change on the crop enterprises in the mixed systems, and some, although less, on the livestock enterp...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of L. leucocephala supplementation on feed intake, water balance and water economy in highland sheep fed teff straw as basal diet. Sixteen young male sheep of uniform weight were assigned in a completely randomized design to the following fe...

In developing countries, drought can cripple communities. Its impact is often long-lasting, especially if smallholders have to sell off farming equipment in order to survive the loss of crop income. And in the developed world, drought in a major food-producing region can push up food prices world...

Results of a study carried on the reproductive performance, herd management, weight & growth, milk production & mortality of Kenana cattle at Um Banein Livestock Research Station (Sudan).
From 2004 to 2010, the Sino-German research group MAGIM (Matter fluxes of Grasslands in Inner Mongolia as affected by grazing) ran a grazing experiment in a typical steppe ecosystem in Inner Mongolia, North China. Multiple ecological effects of grazing, climate variability and topography on plant...
