The productive and reproductive performance of Friesian-'off-type' (Sussex x Brahman-type x Africander-cross) crossbred cattle on smallholdings in the Southern Region of Malawi was evaluated. The performance of Friesian-'off-type', Friesian-Malawi Zebu and pure-Friesian cattle on smallholdings and government stations was also evaluated. It was found that advanced age at first calving and long-calving intervals were common both on smallholdings and on government stations, which was believed to be due to inadequate levels of feeding. Feed resources have not increased with the introduction of improved breeds of cattle and larger herds, and improved and local cattle are kept under the same management conditions on smallholdings. Productivity of the cattle has been decreasing since 1979, possibly due to climate factors, but poor management was not ruled out. It was found that Friesian-Malawi Zebu crosses performed at the same level as the larger Friesian-'off-type' crosses, and the authors are believe that the use of the Malawi Zebu in producing crossbred cattle could lead to increased milk production, particularly in areas where feed is in short supply.

ILCA has been conducting a long-term study on livestock production in central Mali since the beginning of 1976. This report presents results based on data collected over a 6-year period from 1978 to mid-1984. In part I the livestock production systems in the zone, management practices and herd and flock demography are described. Cattle and small ruminant productivity is discussed in detail in parts II and III and recommendations based on the results of the studies are given in part IV.
