Red Maasai [Masai] and Dorper sheep were evaluated for their resistance to gastrointestinal nematode parasites (predominantly Haemonchus contortus), productivity and efficiency in experiments undertaken at the Kenyan coast (humid environment) and the Kenya highlands (semiarid environment). It was...

The marketing system of small ruminants in coastal Kenya was studied through a case study in Kilifi and Kwale districts. Five channel levels were identified. 1) producers, 2) assemblers, 3) itinerant traders 4) retailers, and 5) consumers. Price discovery was by one-to-one bargaining at all the c...
