dc.description.abstract | Community-based breeding programs (CBBPs) for sheep and goats have been operating in
Ethiopia for a decade and genetic progress in growth and reproduction traits has been
observed together with other socio-economic benefits, although at a pilot scale. The
Ethiopian government has identified CBBPs as strategy of choice for genetic improvement of
small ruminants. To make impact to the lives of large number of rural poor, CBBPs need to
scale. Therefore, scaling up of CBBP is necessary to see large scale and continuous gains
across Ethiopia. Complementary interventions like animal health, feeding and market
intervention are also needed to address challenges and to enhance farmers’ livelihoods from
small ruminants’ genetic resources. The Ethiopian government and the private sector need to
invest in strategic areas around CBBPs to make the programme work for the poor and be
sustainable in low‐input systems. Scaling up strategies should be an essential component of
the pilot design. | en_US |
