The Menz and Horro highland sheep breeds are being evaluated at the ILCA Debre Birhan research station in Ethiopia for between-and within-breed genetic variation for resistance to internal parasites. The experimental design involves mating, for each breed, 150 ewes with 10 rams to lamb at the beg...

Research in Kenya has confirmed that Red Maasai sheep are more resistant to gastrointestinal parasites than Dorper sheep and has shown that Small East African goats are more resistant than Galla goats. There is no difference in resistance between the Menz and Horro sheep breeds in Ethiopia. Herit...

A study was conducted to investigate the effect of inclusion of Lablab meal on growth rate, feed intake and carcass composition of Black Head Persian (BHP) lambs. Twenty-four BHP castrate sheep with average weight of 14.1 +2.7 kg were allotted randomly to four dietary treatments. Lambs were indiv...

Data accumulated over 10 years (1971-1981) by the Ministry of Livestock Development and FAO/UNDP (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations/United Nations Development Programme) were analysed to estimate the growth performance of Dorper and Red Maasai sheep and their crosses. The he...

About 60 Black Head Somali rams were used in 21-month experiment period (18 months for growth to maturity and 3 months for fattening) to investigate the effect of age at castration on growth to maturity, fattening capability after maturity and market value of fattened mature rams which had been c...

Mortality was studied in relation to birth weight (BWT) and postpartum age in 3083 Horro lambs born over 15 years at Bako Research Center, IAR. Pre-weaning mortality rose with declining BWT (log y = 2.20- 0.35X; r = 0.9981), but the influence after weaning was less pronounced and linear (y = 23.7...

Lowlands in Ethiopia cover about 60 percent of the total land area, of which about 60 percent is arid. Land use in the lowlands is dominated by pastoralist and agropastoralist production systems. Livestock production constitutes the most important component of the system and rangeland is the majo...

This study is evaluating the resistance of Red Maasai sheep to endoparasite infections relative to Dorper sheep and a range of Red Maasai x Dorper crosses. The results confirm previous reports that both Red Maasai ewes and lambs are more resistant to endoparasites (predominantly Haemonchus contor...
