Are winter rangelands enough to satisfy the nutritional requirements of late‑gestation transhumant goats in Patagonia?
(Springer, 2022-08-03)Transhumant herds graze across two different rangeland types according to the season. Winter rangelands differ from summer rangelands in the amount and quality of available fodder, with the former being the less productive. ... -
Community-based sheep breeding programs generated substantial genetic gains and socioeconomic benefit
(Elsevier, 2020)Community-based breeding programs (CBBPs) for small ruminants have been suggested as alternatives to centralised, government-controlled breeding schemes which have been implemented in many developing countries. An innovative ... -
Community-based vicuña (Vicugna vicugna) shearing in the arid Puna of Argentina: Body weight and fiber traits obtained during the chakus
(Elsevier, 2022-11)In the Argentine Puna, innovation proposals for the production of vicuña fiber represent a strategic opportunity for local communities. However, the development of these proposals, essential for the addition of local value, ... -
Community‐based breeding programmes are a viable solution for Ethiopian small ruminant genetic improvement but require public and private investments
(Wiley Online Library, 2019-04)Ethiopia has a large and diverse population of small ruminants, which contribute substantially to the livelihood and income of the rural poor and the country at large. However, the sector faces a number of challenges. ... -
Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis biovar ovis: evaluación de la sensibilidad antibiótica in vitro
(Asociación Argentina de Microbiología, 2019-12)Los objetivos de este trabajo fueron estudiar la sensibilidad antibiótica de aislamientos de Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis procedentes de pequeños rumiantes e investigar la presencia de integrones que contienen genes ... -
Going to scale—From community-based to population-wide genetic improvement and commercialized sheep meat supply in Ethiopia
(Frontiers Media, 2023-03)Community-based breeding programs (CBBPs) have shown, at pilot scale, to be effective and beneficial in achieving genetic progress and in improving livelihoods of smallholder communities. In Ethiopia 134 sheep and goat ... -
Servicio de entrenamiento en técnicas reproductivas en rumiantes menores: una experiencia de 30 años que continúa. Comunicación
(Asociación Argentina de Producción Animal, 2022-11)Desde el año 1990, el Grupo de Reproducción y Genética del INTA Bariloche ha realizado, en forma continua, cursos de entrenamiento en técnicas reproductivas para ovinos y caprinos en las temáticas de congelamiento seminal, ... -
Three easy fixes for sire use can enhance genetic progress in community-based breeding programmes
(Wiley, 2021)We analysed options to optimize the use of sires in sheep and goat community-based breeding programmes (CBBP) for three scenarios occurring under field conditions: premature sale of selection candidates, fixed service ...
