A 2-year trial is described where locally produced rations, fed to Zebu (Nkedi)cattle as a supplement to normal grazing, were tested for their effects on milk yield and cattle condition. The rations used were a cooked mixture of eight parts of sorghum to two parts of cottonseed, cooked cassava an...
The effects of two rations containing either cottonseed cake or blood meal on the growth performance and carcass characteristics were studied. The experiment involved 24 Shugor male lambs, about four months old, fattened for 63 days. The two rations, iscaloric and isonitrogenous, contained, among...
The effect of adding 10% tallow to a high roughage basal diet (75%) on animal performance and carcass characteristics of Sudan desert sheep and goats was investi- gated. Ten goats and 10 sheep were used in a 2 x 2 factorial design, with five animals per treatment. The animals were 1-1.5 years of ...
In the three major maize producing countries in the East African region of Kenya, Tanzania and Ethiopia, up to 44% of the dietary calorie requirements is provided by maize. It is also recognized that livestock are an essential asset of poor farmers in the mixed crop-livestock systems in this regi...
In the mixed crop–livestock systems, while general relation among feed quality, productivity and soil nutrient management have been reported, information on the effects of extractable soil nutrients on crop residue (CR) feed quality traits is scarce (e.g. in semiarid regions of Karnataka, India)....
Maize provides an important source of forage for the maize–dairy farmers in Kenya. However, due to small farm size, maize cannot supply all the feed needed for dairy cattle and forage is in short supply in the dry seasons. This paper examines practices to increase the health and use of maize and ...
Panel of inbred lines were test crossed to a tester CML312SR and evaluated for stover fodder quality and agronomic traits. These lines were genotyped for by SNP's (55 K illumine and GBS) and 445 K SNP marker were used for GWAS for Stover N, ADF and IVOMD. Significant desirable and undesirable tra...
