2. Livestock Research
❑ Important features of livestock production
▪ Indigenous breeds mainly evolved for
adaptation than production
▪ Production mainly subsistent – (low
input – low output system)
▪ Diversified uses including as sources of
draft power for traditional agriculture,
social and cultural roles
❖ Generally, low productivity with the
consequent low supply and high
cost of livestock products
