Effect of Inadequate Forage as a Source of Feeds to Indigenous Dairy

South Sudan is endowed by natural resources including forestry, minerals, oil, fertile land, livestock and many others. In addition to all these resources, the country continues to import food commodities from the neighboring countries including animal products. With increasing population especially in major towns, there is a high demand for meat, milk and other animal products. As such, the local livestock breeds cannot fulfill this market request, due to their low productivity and lack of adequate pasture throughout the year. This book, therefore, analyses the major factors affecting the low production and productivity of the indigenous breeds. It can help the pastoralists communities in enhancing their livelihood through adopting new skills for a better living standard.
