This paper undertakes an ex ante economic analysis of research on how resistance to trypanosomosis - a dominant livestock disease in Africa - can be maintained and enhanced while retaining and reinforcing characteristics of economic importance to farmers, and on how 'trypanotolerance' can be impa...


Falconi, C.A.Omamo, S.W.D'Ieteren, G.D.M.Iraqi, F.A.[An ex ante economic and policy analysis of research on genetic resistance to livestock disease: Trypanosomiasis in Africa]An ex ante economic and policy analysis of research on genetic resistance to livestock disease: Trypanosomiasis in Africa
Autor: Itty, P.

Trypanosomiasis is a major constraint to increased food production in Africa as it limits livestock production and mixed farming over an area of 10 million km2. The use of African trypanotolerant breeds of cattle is one approach to control trypanosomiasis that is being given increasing attention....


Itty, P.[Profitability, efficiency and comparative advantage of African cattle meat and milk production: The case of trypanotolerant village cattle production]Profitability, efficiency and comparative advantage of African cattle meat and milk production: The case of trypanotolerant village cattle production

There is an alarming rate of human African trypanosomiasis recrudescence in many parts of sub-Saharan Africa. Yet, the disease has no successful chemotherapy. Trypanosoma lacks the enzymatic machinery for the de novo synthesis of purine nucleotides, and is critically dependent on salvage mechanis...

Blood samples were collected from parasitaemic cattle in the Ghibe Valley, Ethiopia, frozen in liquid nitrogen and transported to Nairobi, Kenya. Twelve of the stabilates were inoculated into individual Boran (Bos indicus) calves and characterised for their sensitivity, in turn, to diminazene ace...

Occurrence of population of Trypanosoma congolense resistant to diminazene, isometamidium and homidium]Epidemiology of bovine trypanosomiasis in the Ghibe valley, southwest Ethiopia. 3. Occurrence of population of Trypanosoma congolense resistant to diminazene, isometamidium and homidium

An average of 840 East African Zebu cattle from nine herds in the Ghibe Valley, southwest Ethiopia were monitored from 1986 to 1990. Each month blood samples were collected from analysis of packed red cell volume and detection of trypanosomes. Animals were found to be parasitaemic and with a PCV ...

Factors associated with variations in trypanosome prevalence, incidence of new infections and prevalence of recurrent infections

Tsetse fly populations have been monitored since January 1986 in two areas of the Ghibe valley in southwest Ethiopia, in order to assess trypanosomiasis risk to cattle. The two study areas are Abelti/Ghibe and Gullele/Tolley. Two species of tsetse fly were detected in the valley from 1986 to 1992...
