Improving small ruminant productivity: Genetic resources

The productive performances of Tswana and Boer goats, and Dorper sheep were investigated. Comparative performance on productivity per ewe/doe and young mortality in pure Tswana and Boer goats and Dorper sheep in Botswana were examined. The local breeds were superior for use in communal areas practis...

description The productive performances of Tswana and Boer goats, and Dorper sheep were investigated. Comparative performance on productivity per ewe/doe and young mortality in pure Tswana and Boer goats and Dorper sheep in Botswana were examined. The local breeds were superior for use in communal areas practising non-intensive husbandry.
