Looks at morbidity and mortality levels of domestic ruminants as influenced by environmental and pathological factors in a traditional agropastoral production system in the Niono area in central Mali. Examines causes and rates of morbidity and mortality and percentage and levels of gastro-intesti...
Deforestation in African dry forests is widespread and its drivers are complex and vary in space and time. In this paper, we assessed impacts of immigration on dry forests and options for improved management in a resettlement district in north-western Ethiopia. Key informants interviews, focus gr...

In 1988 and 1989, the effects of endoparasites on reproductive performance of on-farm sheep were studied at 5 sites in the Ethiopian highlands using nematode eggs per gram (EPG) counts, treamatode EPG and packed-cell volume (PCV). Mean litter size, lambing interval, annual reproductive rate and a...
Vector-borne diseases (VBDs) of humans and domestic animals are a significant component of the global burden of disease and a key driver of poverty. The transmission cycles of VBDs are often strongly mediated by the ecological requirements of the vectors, resulting in complex transmission dynamic...
