Things could change in Ethiopia if farmers shift from their traditional ways of farming practice to semi intensive methods. More literature is required on how to develop intensive livestock production systems.

I got the story to be interesting. Looking in to ways to support my family in such lifestyle, wish I get further materials especially in the areas of medication and types of protein rich diets available for the sheep. Thanks!
