Effect of Energy/Protein Ratio and Strain on Performance, Nutrient Digestibility and Serum Biochemical Indices of Exotic and Locally Adapted Turkey
Abstract: This study investigated the response of locally adapted and exotic turkeys raised under the same environmental conditions to diets with varying energy/protein ratio. One hundred and fourty-four (144) four-week old poults of each strain of turkey were randomly selected and assigned to six different diets in a 2 x 2 x 3 factorial arrangement. Each treatment diet were replicated twice with twelve (12) birds per replicate. Diets formulated with 28 …

Challenges of Upgrading Local Cattle with Exotic Breeds: Genetic, Environmental, Economic, and Sustainability Trade-offs
Abstract: The practice of upgrading local cattle with exotic breeds has gained popularity as a strategy to enhance milk and meat production. While this approach holds potential for improving productivity, it also presents a range of challenges that need careful consideration. This study examines the genetic, environmental, economic, and sustainability trade-offs associated with upgrading local cattle with exotic breeds. From a genetic perspective, upgrading can result in the dilution of traits …
