Productive performance of cattle in Botswana
Copyright policy )Productive performance of cattle in Botswana
A field investigation was undertaken in several areas of Botswana to determine how management, environment and possibly aphosphorosis affected the bodily condition and reproductive performance of range cattle in these areas. Results indicated that poor management, overgrazing and poor watering facilities seriously impaired bodily condition and reproductive performance. Good management helps greatly to improve the situation. Aphosphorosis does occur in some areas but appears to be closely linked with malnutrition.
