grass, and 2 handful of tobacco leaves. All these measurements are

put in a jerrican and stopped and allowed to ferment for 6-7 days and

thereafter they are strained through a sieve to obtain extract. This

extract is used to wash/spray the animals. However the informer does

not indicate any dilution factor during spraying or repOlt any case of

poisoning. This requires further investigation. Other farmers

acknowledged use of Solanum aculeastrum alone, which they burn

and squeeze to obtain juice that they smear the whole body of the

animal.

S. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Traditional knowledge of natural resource management and

utili zation has been recognized as an important tool in the

improvement and development of land use systems in the world. The

status of ethnoveterinary phytomedicine among the pastoral Bahima

was examined. The ethnoveterinary practice by which the pastoral

Bahima of Uganda used to survive has been retrieved and

documented for the first time. The study highlighted the significant

amount of ecological indigenous knowledge harbored within the

culture of pastoral Bahima and its observed application in

ethnoveterinary phytomedicine. Concurrently, the medicinal plants

that were used by pastoral Bahima to treat their livestock were also

documented. In addition, methods of preparation, administration and

appl ication were highlighted.

From this piece of work, ri ch indigenous knowledge was found to be

still available and valuable as the use of this knowledge on li vestock

helminths control was found to reduce the worm burden. The plant

extracts significantly reduced the epg when compared with the

control. When compared with albendazole, a commercial

anthelmintic, the plant anthelmintic extracts were able to reduce the

Indigeneous Know/edge in Elhnoveterinarv Medicine in Southwest Uganda 44

worm burden by 57-65% of the original epg hence could provide an alternative means of helminthes control especially i r refined and standardized. The success of these plant anthelmintics in reducing worm egg output proves that traditional knowledge is useful in

livestock disease management and can always give an alternative to

disease treatment whenever modern treatment is wlavailable and

therefore its use should be promoted. It is contended that indigenous knowledge and practices are cheap and readily available to the local populace.

It was further established that this knowledge is vulnerable to irretrievable loss or contamination by western culture, particularly during the 2 1 st centwy when science and technology is given a

special global concern. It was therefore considered necessary to

docwnent thi s wealth of indigenous knowledge and store it for future

reference as a baseline data on ethnoveterinary practice by the Bahima for future researchers or possible harmonization and blending with modern scientific technology.

However, the short study period could not allow the study to cover a larger area and a variety of experimental tests to give a so lid

conclusion on the findings achieved in this small study. It is therefore, necessary that further detailed studies covering a broader area on the rich but rather degenerating ehtnoveterinary knowledge

and practice of Bahima be done to complement this piece of work. The current recurring drought and rapid changes in land use systems through the introduction of crop production in the study area is likely

to lead to loss of some important plant genetic resources before their value is documented.

Finally, a more detailed study be done on the efficacy of P. dodecandra and V amygdalin a as plant anthelmintic by refining the

IndigeneoZis Knowledge in Ethnoveterinarv Medicine in Southwest Uganda 45

active principles, evaluati ng thei r tox icity, standardization and

establishing the correct effective doze that can achieve a level of

100% epg reduction of commercial anthe lmintic used for evaluation.

Throughout, emphasis should be placed on compounds and

applications, which can be readily prepared and comprehended within

the peasant commwlity but after thorough studies on the intellectual

property ri ghts, costs and benefits of cOl1unercia li zation are done. However, incentives should be thought for the people providi ng the

information. It is further recommended that these plant anthehni ntics

be tested in vivo using different an imal species and in vitro laboratory

tests on specific worm species to determine any possible worm

res istance.
