Conservation agriculture holds special promise for Africa, where farming communities face the problems of low yields, impoverished soils, lack of capital, and labour shortages brought on by the scourge of AIDS. It is a way to improve the livelihoods of millions of people and achieve sustainable agriculture over a wide area. The manual is based on the skills and experience of 90 farmers, extension personnel and scientists from 16 countries throughout Africa. It is written in clear, easy-to-understand language, and is illustrated with numerous clear line drawings. Case studies throughout the book show how farmers in different situations have put conservation agriculture into effect.

Zoonoses are infectious diseases – including parasitic infections – that can be transmitted from animals to humans. Zoonoses pose a significant threat to human health, especially when humans and animals live close together and when humans are in contact with animal products. Examples are: rabies, bovine tuberculosis and many diarrhoeal diseases. This easy-to-read booklet has been written for people who live and work with animals or animal products, to arouse awareness among its readers of the significance of zoonoses to human health. It provides information about the prevention of these diseases in humans and in animals, explaining the causes, the transmission and how to protect against them. The focus is on developing countries and on rural and urban situations. It is hoped that this booklet will help its readership to achieve a better understanding of zoonoses and what measures people can take.

Snail farming: Production, processing and marketing

|
|
This easy-to-read booklet aims to provide ideas to farmers who would like to produce snails on a small scale for consumption or marketing. It is not primarily intended for entrepreneurs wishing to engage in large-scale snail farming for the export market. Attention is focused here on three major species: Achatina achatina, Achtina fulica and Archachatina marginata; that are common in tropical areas, especially in Africa. Limiting factors to be considered for effective snail farming are discussed so that farmers do not start breeding snails without considering the advantages and constraints.

Dairy cattle husbandry in the Agrodok series

This booklet provides information about the main aspect of dairy farming in the tropics such as feeding, breeding, health care, reproduction and recording. It is meant for smallholders with some education and some knowledge about cattle. The second target group are technicians like extension and animal production officers, who as advisers can assist smallholders planning to start or improve milk production. A production of 1500 to 3000 kg milk per cow per year seems feasible for smallholders and this is the assumed level of production in this booklet. A combination of improved management and genetic improvement of the herd can also contribute to increasing milk production. However farmers who only have a few cows, a long calving interval and high calf mortality have little scope for selection of replacement heifers. Furthermore, selective breeding may be difficult, especially when the choice of semen or bulls is limited. Seek expert advice from an animal breeding centre if available. The booklet is the product of intensive cooperation between the three authors, who together have over 100 years of experience in milk production and dairy development in Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America. It is hoped, that this easy-to-read publication will help farmers make their dairy production more profitable.
