LiveGene Delivering improved genetics to the world’s small-scale livestock keepers Working with partners

LiveGene Objectives Determine the most appropriate genetic improvement strategies for different livestock production systems. Design and support implementation of sound breeding programs and delivery of the desired genetics Discover the genes responsible for better productivity and resilience and use this information in breeding programs Support the development of policies and institutional arrangements that would enable improved access to, and sustainable use of, livestock genetic resources.

Project highlight – Senegal Dairy Genetics Various government initiatives to increased dairy productivity through improved genetics - but questions on which breed to promote Project aimed to identify and promote utilization of the most appropriate breed / cross-breed type Partnered with 220 dairy keeping households, with 3000+ cattle, over an almost 2 year period to obtain data Collaboration with Heifer International Senegal on domestic biogas training (146 female and 366 male farmers)

Project highlight – Senegal Dairy Genetics 8.0 x household profit 7.5 x milk production 2.4 x household profit 3.2 x milk production Breed Management level
