Phenomics is certainly a bigger challenge and I don’t think it is limited to only the African Livestock systems although it could be much more challenging than others. Although Phenomics presents greater opportunity for livestock improvement however addressing the genomics capabilities first will be a good rung to start. Its difficult learning to…[Read more]

I think for this to be successful it has to be partly driven by the farmers/stakeholders themselves as they are the final users of the innovation. The hurdle will be to have a design that easily incorporate the smallholder farmers whose lives we want to improve via genomics tools & application. The benefits needs to be well articulated beyond the…[Read more]

Yes, this has improved the vaccine production with actual impact as most of the vaccines being used for poultry & cattle are produced locally. A recommended minimum standards for bio security especially for diseases like ASF, AI has also being adopted.

since it is termed ‘African’ then it should be at least representative of all the breeds with proven impact on the locals; interms of the performance & productivity. There are practically no substantial up-to-date records for these animals which means there may be a considerably reliance on the knowledge of the farmers to identify the influential…[Read more]
