Urban and Peri-urban Dairying: Characterization of Dairy Production in Urban and Peri-urban Areas Aklilu Hailemicheal

Dairy cattle have long been considered as important source of income for urban and peri-urban populations, providing the opportunity for profitable and sustainable diversity for small farms. Their importance is also increasing in intensive feeding systems and in large farms. Examining all aspects of dairy cattle production, this comprehensive work is an essential purchase for all those studying dairy cattle production and is a valuable source of reference for all personnel involved in the dairy industry, including those working in dairy farms, research institutions and teaching posts in universities. Libraries in Universities and research centers will find this manuscript an important addition to their shelves.
