Important aspects and limitations in considering community-based breeding programs for low-input smallholder livestock systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss important factors for the success of community-based breeding programs and highlight the main issues for program implementation in relation to site selection, the communication processes, recording schemes, role of scientists, institutionalisation of cooperation and the enabling environment.

Udder measurements and milk production in two Awassi sheep genotypes and their crosses.
TL;DR: The predictive ability of the measurements studied have practical implications for community-based breeding programs involving improvement of milk production-not just in Syria, but in other countries in dry areas as well-because it is possible for experienced farmers to visually assess milk production of dairy ewes or take simple udder measurements with predictive value.

TL;DR: In this article, four by-products typical for the Mediterranean area were tested in vitro (n = 3 per diet or feed), in sacco (n= 6) and in vivo (N = 6) either individually or in a proportion of 0.34 of the total diet.

TL;DR: The workshop focused primarily on the technical needs and opportunities and placed less emphasis on policy and institutional issues, although findings on such issues did arise naturally from many of the conclusions drawn.

Nutritional composition of lentil straw, vetch hay, olive leaves, and saltbush leaves and their digestibility as measured in fat-tailed sheep
Souheila Abbeddou,Souheila Abbeddou,Safouh Rihawi,Hans-Dieter Hess,L. Iñiguez,Andrea Corinna Mayer,Michael Kreuzer +6 more
TL;DR: Vetch hay, olive leaves, and lentil straw had superior OM digestibility to that of barley straw (the latter not significant), and vetch hay was the most valuable forage in terms of energy and protein supply.
