Field solution for the Artificial Insemination of Ethiopian Sheep Breeds 
Ethiopian Sheep and Goat Value Chain Development: This manual offers an overview of reproductive packages to effectively vehicle improved genetics from the communities, to the communities.
Indigenous stocks as treasure troves for sustainable livestock production in the 21st century: Insights from small ruminant genomics
The versatility of indigenous sheep and goats to adapt to diverse environmental conditions and production systems positions them as significant animal genetic resources for sustaining livelihoods of agro-pastoralists, ...
GnRH and prostaglandin-based synchronization protocols as alternatives to progestogen-based treatments in sheep
The study investigated, for cycling sheep, synchronizing protocols simultaneously to the standard “P” protocol using progestogens priming with intravaginal devices and gonadotropin. In November 2014, 90 adult Menz ewes ...
The potential for the application of genomic selection for small ruminants (SR) in developing countries
The versatility of indigenous small ruminants to adapt to diverse agro-ecologies and production systems imply that they play a key role in sustaining livelihoods of (agro)-pastoralists and small holder farmers in many ...
Systematic review and meta-analysis of metacestodes prevalence in small ruminants in Ethiopia
Metacestodes, the larval stages of canid cestode parasites, are among the causes of morbidity, mortality and financial losses in small ruminants in Ethiopia as a result of organ and carcass condemnation at slaughter. Several ...
System Dynamics Modelling Approach to Determine Sustainable Stocking Rate for a Sheep Population in the Ethiopian Highlands
A system dynamics approach was used to determine the sustainable stocking rate of the Menz sheep population in the Ethiopian highland. A model was developed to simulate stocking rate based on communal grazing land. The ...
