In this video we have crossbred goats, specifically a mix of the and the .

The WAD goat is indigenous to parts of West Africa and is renowned for its extreme hardiness and adaptability to harsh conditions. Crucially for the rainforest, they exhibit a remarkable natural resistance to common diseases and parasites, including trypanosomiasis, which is a significant challenge in humid, tsetse-fly infested areas.

Their robust build, often seen in the larger, darker doe (the mother goat) in this picture, allows them to navigate dense undergrowth and tolerate high humidity and rainfall without succumbing to foot rot or other moisture-related ailments as easily as less adapted breeds.

The Red Sokoto, while also a Nigerian breed, is known for its good meat and skin production qualities. They are highly adaptable and possess decent growth rates.

The reddish hue on the younger kids in the picture is a strong indicator of this genetic influence. They contribute to the overall productivity of the herd – better growth for meat and potentially improved reproductive rates.

The Cross will improve Hybrid Vigor/Heterosis in Rainforest Nigeria;

By crossing these two breeds, we achieve hybrid vigor. This means the offspring inherit the best traits from both parents, often resulting in animals that are superior to either purebred in a specific environment.

Silvopasture is a farming practice that integrates trees, livestock, and forage in a single management system. This approach combines the benefits of trees, such as shade and improved soil health, with the production of livestock and forage.

Key Components of Silvopasture are

Trees: Providing shade, improving soil health, and creating a microclimate that benefits livestock and forage.

Forage: Grasses, legumes, or other plants that livestock graze on.

Livestock: Cattle, sheep, goats, or other animals that graze on the forage

Benefits of Silvopasture:

Improved Livestock Health: Trees provide shade, reducing heat stress and improving animal welfare.

Increased Biodiversity*: Silvopasture systems can support a wider range of plant and animal species.

Soil Health: Tree roots help stabilize soil, reduce erosion, and improve nutrient cycling.

Climate Change Mitigation*: Trees sequester carbon dioxide, reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Increased Productivity: Silvopasture systems can increase forage production and improve livestock productivity

Management Considerations:

Tree Selection: Choosing tree species that are compatible with livestock and forage.

Tree Density: Managing tree density to balance shade, forage production, and livestock access.

Forage Management: Managing forage growth and quality to meet livestock needs

Livestock Management*: Managing livestock grazing to avoid overgrazing and maintain soil health

By integrating trees, livestock, and forage, silvopasture systems can promote ecological interactions and synergies, leading to more sustainable and productive farming systems.
