“Hopefully, the technology is also expected to engender rearing of cattle in colonies and ranches and curb the incessant and perennial herder-farmer conflicts in the country,” it asserted further.

USDA FAS director, Andre Ntamach, said the technology ensures least cost ration for beef cattle without compromising basic nutritional requirements and methane reduction.

According to Ntamach, the technology could be updated to support and accommodate other livestock such as dairy cattle, sheep and goats as well as swine and poultry.

The team lead, Ermias Kebreab, expressed delight with the workshop, pointing at the importance of extending the technology to rural livestock farmers to ensure food security amidst looming global food crisis.
