appropriate breeding and production technologies for improving production and productivity of various cattle breeds in Uganda.The overall objective of the study was to evaluate and document the performance of existing breeds of cattle in the south western agro-ecological zone (SWAEZ) for improved livestock productivity. The specific objectives include: (i) to evaluate the growth performance of existing cattle breed under on-station and on-farm conditions.The study is meant to generate up to-date and accurate information on performance of selected cattle populations in the SWAEZ in terms of their growth, maturity and production parameters. This would help in packaging of appropriate information on better management practices to guide farmers in partnership with National Agriculture Advisory Services (NAADS) and extension workers as conduits for effective uptake pathways for technology adoption.
