The aim of the current simulation study was to maximize the amount (kg) of high value meat arising from surplus males and females per kilogram of the goat population and, maximize weight gains to turnoff age. Subsequently, the study aimed to decrease

This study estimated economic values (EVs) for disease resistance traits for dairy/crossbred goats in Kenya. The traits mean somatic cell count (SCC, cells/μl) and faecal worm egg count (FEC, epg) were taken as indicator traits for the most prevalen

The objective of this study was to define breeding objectives and consequently determine optimum crossbreeding levels for goats in the smallholder production systems. Profits and economic values (EVs) were estimated for four genotypes namely (a) orig

Data consisting of 8922 weight records from 2642 Dorper sheep from 20 to 380 days of age spanning 1981–1996 were used to model the growth trajectory using random regression (RR) and estimate genetic parameters. The independent variables were orthog
