Determination of phenotypic characteristics, production systems, productivity, and contribution of local chickens to households in North-Central Namibia (original) (raw)

I am indebted to the University of South Africa for their contribution to the research proposal and provision of various services. I am also grateful to the agriculture office of the Department of Agriculture, Water, and Forestry in Namibia, all staff for providing necessary information needed for this study. Special thanks go to farmers in north-central Namibia for taking part in the study and for allowing the use of their chickens without any incentives. I would like to express my gratitude to my husband: Mathews Eiki and our children: Levy, Sophia, and Savina for their understanding, love, and encouragement.
