Rabbit Nutrition: Performance analysis under two feeding scenarios

Beschreibung

The rising cost of agricultural inputs, high unemployment rate and malnutrition occasioned by the rising cost of cereal grains have heightened the need for resource poor farmers to explore alternative agricultural enterprises including rabbit production in many developing countries. Rabbit production system has been well received in Kenya in the recent past prompting further research in rabbit feeds and feeding. This book details the comparison in performance and production costs incurred between intensive vs. semi intensive feeding of rabbits, making it important to rabbit farmers. The segment on policy recommendation can be consulted by policy makers and other stakeholders in the rabbit industry.
