A study was conducted to examine the duration of anthelmintic effect of copper oxide wire particles (COWP) in grazing goats, as data for the persistence of efficacy of COWP in this host species is limited. Forty-eight indigenous male goats were infected naturally by grazing them on Haemonchus con...

In northern Senegal, 49 Sahel does, 2.7± 0.5-year-old were observed over 1 year while foraging in natural pasture. Does were assigned to three treatments 2 weeks after kidding: ad libitum grazing (group 1), grazing plus daily supplementation with 500 9 per animal of concentrate, 66% corn flour, 3...

The production performance of indigenous goats under sedentary and transhumant management systems in Sudan, Mali and Kenya are investigated. Age at first parturition was 15.5 months in Mali but was delayed to 18 months in Kenya where management was better. Kidding intervals were 7.8, 10.6 and 9 m...

An amalgamated flock of traditionally managed Mashona Small East African goats was monitored over a 6 year period. Kids born in the hot dry season were heavier (p < 0.05) at 60, 90 and 180 d (6.4, 8.0 and 10.9 vs 5.7, 6.7 and 9.2 kg, respectively) than kids born in the hot wet season. Sex had no ...

Formulation of cost-effective preventive control programmes for helminth infection in small ruminants should be based on sound epidemiological knowledge of the time relationship between contamination of pastures and the seasonal availability of infective larvae in a given geographic area. Epidemi...
