Phenotypic ranking experiments in identifying breeding objective traits of smallholder farmers in northwestern Ethiopia.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2021

Sheriff Oumer, Alemayehu Kefyalew, Haile Aynalem

Abstract excerpt

We executed two live animal ranking experiments, own-flock and group-animal ranking, to identify the breeding objectives of Arab and Oromo goat keepers in northwestern Ethiopia as a preliminary step towards designing sustainable breeding programs for two goat populations. In the own-flock ranking experiment, a total of 147 households, out of which 46 were Arab and 101 were Oromo goat keepers that live in...
