Identifies interrelationships between modifications of the environment and the growth of Nigeria's population and consequent agricultural expansion in the subhumid zone resulting in the disappearance of habitats & hosts of tsetse. Discusses impacts of these changes in the distribution of the nati...

Tsetse, trypanosomiasis and cattle in a changing environment
Reports the determination of tsetse challenge at sites of the African Trypanotolerant Livestock Network and its relationships with trypanosome prevalence for the period 1984-1986. Lists the Network sites with trypanotolerant cattle or sheep together with the tsetse species detected. Discusses tse...

Determination of tsetse challenge and its relationship with trypanosome prevalence in trypanotolerant livestock at sites of the African Trypanotolerant Livestock Network
Discusses trypanotolerant livestock, commonly accepted by livestock producers that trypanotolerance is the ability of an animal to survive, reproduce and be productive without the necessity for trypanocidal drugs in an environment with trypanosomiasis, risk. Discusses constraints in conducting re...

Trypanosome prevalence in cattle herds exposed to a range of tsetse challenge levels in Northern Cote d'Ivoire
African animal trypanosomosis is a parasitic disease that afflicts livestock across much of sub-Saharan Africa. The disease, primarily transmitted by the tsetse fly (Glossina spp.), causes morbidity and mortality in several species of livestock. It is particularly important in southern Burkina Fa...

This study is conducted with a general objective of evaluating contingent valuation as a method for assessing the willingness of people at a site in the Ghibe Valley of Ethiopia to contribute labour, time and money to tsetse control. The more specific objectives of the case study were to evalua...

The effect of combined tsetse and strategic helminth control on trypanosome transmission risk in trypanocide resistance hot spots in Sikasso region, Mali
The subhumid and semi-arid zones of West Africa are one of the subregions reputed to hold Africa's greatest potential for expansion of animal agriculture. Within this region livestock are affected by tsetse-transmitted trypanosomosis-a disease that severely constrains productivity, thus hampering...

Improving the productivity of crop-livestock systems under trypanosomosis risk in West Africa: Potentials and opportunities in the next decade
Over the last two to three decades, West Africa has witnessed considerable changes in land use. Unprecedented increases in human population combined with changes in climatic patterns have reduced per capita arable land traditionally available for agricultural production. In the livestock sub-sect...
