Larbi, AsamoahSmith, Jimmy W.[Plant, animal and soil responses to population of cowpea in maize-cowpea intercrops]Plant, animal and soil responses to population of cowpea in maize-cowpea intercrops

A whole farm simulation approach was used to assess the economic impacts of five alternative strategies for controlling East Coast fever (ECF), a cattle disease, on farms from two sites in Kenya. The strategies were also ranked using the stochastic dominance criterion to determine the most prefer...


Nyangito, H.O.Richardson, J.W.Mukhebi, A.W.Zimmel, P.Namken, J.Perry, Brian D.[Whole farm simulation analysis of economic impacts of East Coast fever immunization strategies on mixed crop-livestock farms in Kenya]Whole farm simulation analysis of economic impacts of East Coast fever immunization strategies on mixed crop-livestock farms in Kenya

In West Africa, crop-livestock mixed farming is emerging from the currently predominant nomadic pastoralism. It is hypothesized that competitiveness between crop and livestock enterprises may be an important determinant of the pace of this evolution. A field study in the derived savanna of southw...


Okoruwa, V.Jabbar, M.A.Akinwumi, J.A.[Crop-livestock competition in the West African derived savanna: Application of a multi-objective programming model]Crop-livestock competition in the West African derived savanna: Application of a multi-objective programming model

Investigates Nitrogen and Phosphorus transfers in a crop - livestock system in the subhumid zone of Nigeria. Estimates N and P removed from cropland during crop residue grazing and returned to the land through manure, and the contribution crop residues make to cattle diet during the dry season.

Discusses the cultivation/cattle complex in Western Darfur, Sudan by giving greater emphasis on traditional rainfed agriculture, small-scale irrigation and animal husbandry. Presents data on agronomy and yield of traditional rainfed crops, on climatology, on livestock population and on livestock ...

Dry matter (DM) production, crude protein, phosphorus fibre contents and goat preference for eight indigenous browse species, Alchornea cordifolia, Diallum guineense, Ficus capensis, Baphia nitida, Manniophytum fulvum, Homalium aylmeri, Glyphaea brevis and Rauwolifia vomitoria, and for two exotic...


Larbi, AsamoahJabbar, M.A.Orok, E.J.Idiong, N.B.Cobbina, J.[Alchornea cordifolia, a promising indigenous browse species adapted to acid soils in southeastern Nigeria for integrated crop-livestock agroforestry production systems]Alchornea cordifolia, a promising indigenous browse species adapted to acid soils in southeastern Nigeria for integrated crop-livestock agroforestry production systems

Autor: Sumberg, J.E.

Review of work being carried out by ILCA's Humid Zone Programme based at Ibadan, Nigeria to improve small ruminant production in this area. Evaluates ways of linking crop & small ruminant production through the use of fast growing leguminous trees such as Leucaena leucocephala & Gliricidia sepium...

Autor: Powell, J.M.

Discusses the contribution of crop residues to livestock feed resources during the dry season in the Abet plains, central Nigeria. Determines the grain and vegetative dry matter yields of predominant crops and the relationship between the two; percentage composition of crop residues; fiber, silic...

Background This paper devotes to determinants of crop–livestock diversification in the mixed farming systems in the Gudo Beret watershed, central highlands of Ethiopia. In the highland agro-ecologies, the mixed farming-dominated agriculture is persistently confronted with food insecurity, feed sc...
