Foraging efficiency, stocking rates, grazing pressure and livestock weight changes in the Sahel
Published and new data from experiments conducted in several range sites in Niger and Mali were analysed to assess wet season, dry season and year-round animal weight changes, stocking rates, forage availability, feed intake and faecal excretions of cattle, sheep and goats. Herbage availability over...
