Inadequate feed supplies remain a major constraint to sustainable cattle production in general, and milk production in particular, in smallholder production systems throughout sub-Saharan Africa. In the emerging peri-urban dairy production systems in West and central Africa, for example, poor dev...

This study was conducted in Metema district, Amhara Region, Ethiopia to characterize the existing feed resources and recommend their enhanced utilization for animal production. The major feeds were pasture (55.7%), crop residues (20.7%), stubble (14.3%) and hay (9.3%). The estimated annual feed s...

A small group met for three days with the aim of developing a simple tool for characterizing the smallholder feeding system in different environments. The vision was to produce something that would be useful for development agencies to diagnose feed issues and provide guidance for potential inter...

The livestock revolution is occurring but it is being preceded by the feed revolution because of the substantial mount of feed required to supply by the increased animal population. However, the opportunities to meet the demand for feed depend on the existing production systems. This paper looks ...

A deterministic model was developed to evaluate the adequacy and utilization of ruminant livestock feed resources in the moist savannahs of W. Africa. Changes in land cropped and available as range, were used to project changes in feed resources over time and to evalaute whether these feed resour...
