In Africa, the non-forested portion of humid zone and the
sub-humid part of sub-Saharan Africa are the areas with
the greatest opportunity for expanding crop and livestock
production. In this part of Africa, the greater half of the
ruminant population are reared (over 232 million heads of
cattle and 343 million heads of sheep and goats)
(FAOSTAT, 2005).
This huge continental resource plays multi-factorial
roles in mixed crop-livestock farming system. Hence, it
has been proved that livestock production through
improved production strategies could play a significant
role in the development of a sustainable and environmentally
friendly agriculture in efforts to ensure food
security, poverty alleviation and effective utilization of
natural resources (Afework et al., 2004; Shaw, 2004).
