A survey of two rural markets in southwest Nigeria over 14 months showed that supplies, sales and prices of sheep and goats varied widely during the period with a sharp peak during the Muslim festival of Eid-el-Kabir and a smaller peak during the Christmas-New Year period. Local West African Dwar...

Buyer preferences for sheep and goats in southern Nigeria: A hedonic price analysis
Examines the influence of breed, sex, live-weight and time & place of sale on small ruminant prices in six southwest Nigerian markets. Assesses the relationship of prices between markets and the degree of integration between them. Includes a brief description of the structure of small-ruminant ma...

The investigation of genetic diversity at molecular level has been proposed as a valuable complement and sometimes proxy to phenotypic diversity of local breeds and is presently considered as one of the FAO priorities for breed characterization. By recommending a set of selected molecular markers...

An exploratory survey was conducted at Simien mountains national park (SMNP) and bordering districts to assess the genetic introgressions between walia ibex (C. walie) and domestic goats (Capra hircus) in Ethiopia by studying breeding strategies, production and grazing systems. About 96.9% of the...
