The comparative performances of Nguni sheep and Landim goats reared at Chobela Experimental Station are described. G.oats have the better reproductive performance, but both species are rather prolific. Late age at first parturition and long inter-parturition intervals seem to be a result of manag...

Soybean cultivation in Mozambique is dominated by smallholder farmers who use little or no inputs such as bacterial inoculants, often resulting in low yields. This study assessed the ability of TGx and non-TGx soybean genotypes to nodulate with native rhizobia in Mozambican soils, and evaluated t...

Provides the first full physical description of the Landim goats and sheep of Mozambique; presents and compares the productivity of the two species under the same environmental and management conditions as least squares means; with particular reference to age at first parturition, litter size, re...

Reports the reproductive performance of two tropical African strains of goats and sheep with emphasis on prolificacy. Examines age at first parturition, parturition interval, and litter size.

Sex of calf and year of birth significantly affected birth weight and post-weaning growth. Pre-weaning weights, and pre-and post-weaning growth were significantly affected by season of calving. Cow fertility had a significant influence on weaning, 12- and 18-month weights. Although male calves we...

Agrobacterium deltaense strain CNPSo 3391 was isolated from a soybean nodule in Mozambique. Its genome size was estimated at 4,926,588 bp. This isolate carries several coding sequences for stress tolerance, but no identifiable nodulation or virulence genes. Possible ecological roles of bacteria i...

Aflatoxins, produced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus, are a major health concern because of their acute and chronic health effects on humans and domesticated animals. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that more than 4.5 billion people in the developing world are chronically exposed...

Goat producers in Inhassoro follow traditional management practices that lead to low supply of low quality goats. This has negative impacts on profitability, and on market access. Traders who buy in the Inhassoro locality buy only small volumes, and buyers from external markets are unaware of pot...
