Menz sheep breed are well known for their adaptation in the cool highlands of Ethiopia and have wide range of coat colour. In the traditional breeding, black coat colour is not favored (by both producers and consumers in local markets) and communities select against it and therefore its frequency...

Community-based breeding programs (CBBP), are being implemented in the South-West of Burkina Faso. CBBP are participatory programs that involve all local stakeholders in all steps, from designing and planning of the breeding program, all the way to the selection of the breeding stock. They aim to...

The study used a stochastic metafrontier model followed by a Tobit regression model to estimate technical efficiency and meta-technology ratios and assess factors influencing efficiency of a suite of beef farm types in Botswana. Results show that the average technical efficiency level is 0.496 fo...

The accuracy of genetic prediction when pedigree ( P A ) or pedigree and marker-based ( PM A ) relationships were used in mixed model equations was assessed. Daughter yield deviations (DYD) records for milk, fat and protein yields on Holstein sires (n = 1,811) with DNA marker information were ana...

In South Africa, the increasing incidence of stock theft and poaching, with the accompanying cruelty to animals, affects all sectors of the livestock farming, including the large commercial farmers, stud breeders and the smallholder rural farmers who may own one or two cattle. Animal forensics, w...
