Resumen
Descripción
Mass transabdominal ultrasound pregnancy diagnosis is an ethical, low-cost, practical, and accurate reproductive tool for detecting pregnant females among small ruminants’ flocks. It is now being introduced to Tunisian small ruminants’ breeders’ communities within ICARDA’s Integrated Herd Health Package (I2HP) under CGIAR’s initiative for an agroecological transition in small ruminant farming systems. This document summarizes the outputs of the first step and outlines the next steps for widespread adoption of the tool across the country.
