Genetic progress and economic benefit of community-based breeding programs for sheep out- and upscaling options in Ethiopia
In this study, expected genetic progress and economic benefits from implementing three community-based breeding programs for sheep (CBBP) out- and upscaling strategies were investigated. Strategy 1 is to replicate average existing CBBPs, strategy 2 is to increase the number of breeding males produce...
