This study examined whether work applied at different stages of lactation had any effect on reproduction of cows under two feeding regimes. Twenty-four F1 crossbred dairy cows (12 Friesian X Boran and 12 Simmental X Boran) were allocated one of two diets (H + 3: natural pasture hay + 3 kg concent...

Three experiments were conducted in successive years on crossbred suckler cows on a farm in a semi-arid area close to Nairobi, Kenya. The cows were mated seasonally to calve approximately 1 month before the rainy season (March to May). The effects of milking once daily and supplementation (2 kg/h...

Peri-urban dairy producers in West Africa face major production constraints including inadequate and poor quality feeds. In view of the high cost of traditional supplementary feeds such as oilseed cakes, the production of forage, especially legumes, is increasingly being advocated. However, it ha...
