Achievements
Dairy cattle

  Improved crossbred
  dairy cattle
   (Frisian & Jersey)
   - F1 (50%)
   - High grade (>75%)
  With different production
   packages
Dairy

- Feeding strategies to the
  different areas and feed
  resource types
- Forage production
- Milk processing
- Animal health
- Cooperatives and marketing
Beef cattle

Feeding management
practice with available
feed resources in the
different agro ecologies

Characterization of
selected breeds in
Ethiopia for beef
production
Animal power
• Evaluation on the use of
  male indigenous and
  crossbred cattle for draft
  power

• Use of crossbred cows as
  dual purpose animals: as
  dairy and traction

• Evaluation of different,
  improved power farm
  implements and harness
  used in animal traction
Small Ruminants
– Improved management of
  local breeds
– Cross breeding
   • Dorper sheep
   • Bore Goats
– Feeding packages for the
  different production systems
  using locally available feed
  resources
Poultry
– Adaptation of commercial
  breeds (Many breeds recommended
  for the different systems)
   • Broilers
   • Layers
   • Dual purpose
– Health management
  recommendations
– Feeding system
  recommendations with
  locally available resources
– General management practice
Fishery
– Most of the water bodies
  are characterized

– Recommended aquaculture
  practice are available

  • 4. Livestock commodities Apiculture - Honey Feed - Beeswax Resources - Roughages - Concentrates Sericulture - Others - Silk Rangelands
  • 5. National Coordination • Partners – Regional Agricultural Research Institutes – Bureau of Agricultures/ Livestock Agencies – Higher Learning Institutes – Ministry of Agriculture – Different local and international organizations like ILRI, ASRECA, etc
  • 6. Thematic areas Newly started Biotechnology Socio-economics and food science Extension, Feed Gender, marketing production and Climate change Genetic improvement management Dairy cattle Sheep and goats Poultry, Silk worms Livestock Animal health Epidemiology, control Draught power Research and prevention Processing Range Nutrition & Dairy, meat, honey, management feeding fish, feed systems
  • 7. Achievements Dairy cattle Improved crossbred dairy cattle (Frisian & Jersey) - F1 (50%) - High grade (>75%) With different production packages
  • 8. Dairy - Feeding strategies to the different areas and feed resource types - Forage production - Milk processing - Animal health - Cooperatives and marketing
  • 9. Beef cattle Feeding management practice with available feed resources in the different agro ecologies Characterization of selected breeds in Ethiopia for beef production
  • 10. Animal power • Evaluation on the use of male indigenous and crossbred cattle for draft power • Use of crossbred cows as dual purpose animals: as dairy and traction • Evaluation of different, improved power farm implements and harness used in animal traction
  • 11. Small Ruminants – Improved management of local breeds – Cross breeding • Dorper sheep • Bore Goats – Feeding packages for the different production systems using locally available feed resources
  • 12. Poultry – Adaptation of commercial breeds (Many breeds recommended for the different systems) • Broilers • Layers • Dual purpose – Health management recommendations – Feeding system recommendations with locally available resources – General management practice
  • 13. Fishery – Most of the water bodies are characterized – Recommended aquaculture practice are available – Fingerling production systems available – Recommended fishing gear technologies – Preservation practice
  • 14. Apiculture – Different types of beehives are developed – Bee disease and pest control mechanisms are established – Bee forage – Small and large scale honey and beeswax processing technologies
  • 15. Sericulture – Suitable silkworm races identified – Silk worm forages varieties and management production practice established – Cocoon production management production available
  • 16. Feed production & management • Forage crops suitable for different agro- ecologies and production strategies are identified – 11 registered forage species/varieties – More than 25 other recommended species – Various agronomic, conservation and utilization technologies • Recommended practice in the Improvement and utilization of crop residues and agro- industrial by products are established • Demonstrations are going on in the different agro-ecologies and production systems
  • 17. Socio-economics and extension – Socio economic information in the different target areas – Marketing studies – Various information to support policy decisions
