Assessment of Breeding Practices and Productive and Reproductive Performance of Multiple Livestock Species in Mixed Farming System in Majang Zone, Southwest Ethiopia

The performance variables of the livestock species were relatively better in the ML than in the LL AEZ. However, the performance of the various livestock species in the study area was low due to late age at first parturition and long parturition interval. Further research is needed to identify potential causes of the low performances and to implement appropriate interventions to enhance the productive and reproductive performances of livestock in the study area.

Abstract

The performance variables of the livestock species were relatively better in the ML than in the LL AEZ. However, the performance of the various livestock species in the study area was low due to late age at first parturition and long parturition interval. Further research is needed to identify potential causes of the low performances and to implement appropriate interventions to enhance the productive and reproductive performances of livestock in the study area.
