Calf Mortality Control ProgramInstitute of Dairy Sciences, UAF

In Pakistan, more than 50% calves die prior to 2 months age. It is mainly due to mis-management. Reduction in calf mortality is possible by feeding colostrum within an hour after birth, navel cord care, feeding according to requirement, control of parasitism and use of injection Butalex at the age of 10 days.

Calf suffer with omphalitis

Training about navel cord care In Pakistan, low livestock productivity is mainly due to underfeeding. Mott grass is a multicut fodder having optimum growth and production in May –June. However, quality fodder availability is only possible if cutting stage is 45-60 days. For making quality mott grass silage, use molasses @3% fodder dry matter. Silage feeding can ensure regular and uniform supply of nutrients resulting to enhance productivity.

Ber (Zizyphus mauritina Lamk) has 45 genera and 550 species and is widely distributed in sub-tropical and tropical climates of world. Ber is also mentioned in Quraan as a blessed fruit. Ber fruit is rich source of vitamin-A, B and C; vitamin C contents are higher than oranges. It contains more phosphorus, protein, calcium and carotene than apple. The fruits is high in calorific values and is easily digestible, laxative and help lower the cholesterol level, blood pressure and is useful against cancer, liver diseases and HIV. Because of its tolerance against salinity and drought, it can grow better in poor degraded lands thus provides provides food security in those areas.In Punjab total marginal land is 6.67 million hectare, which is approximately 3% of the total cultivated land. Most of the agronomic and horticultural crops cannot be grown successfully in marginal areas, whereas Ber orchards can be established successfully on such land. This fast growing tree starts producing fruit within two to three years. High density plantation (18 x 18 feet or 15 x 20 feet) is recommended for the establishment of Ber orchards. Height of the plants is maintained at 6 or 4 feet by annual pruning. In this way the number of plants per unit are more and management practices are easy. This technology provides the opportunity to grow the good Ber cultivars in marginal lands for higher returns. Pruning in the months of fodder shortage can provide fodder for goats and sheep. Fruits are used as fresh fruit and different by products such as jams and pickles are prepared to get the more income. Following cultivars are available at Institute of Horticultural Sciences, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan.

UniGold is a newly developed egg laying breed for backyard poultry production. Breed has been developed at University of Agriculture Faisalabad with the help of funds from Punjab Agriculture Research Board (PARB). Locally available indigenous and adapted breeds have been used to have barring as the main color. Two strains (full neck and naked neck) have been developed tested for their performance under low to medium input systems in central and southern Punjab. Breed has capacity to produce as high as 210 colored eggs with average weight of 50gm as reported by Poultry Research Institute of Government of Punjab. Upscaling of the breed is expected through a Indigenous Chicken Research and Development Centre being anticipated to be erected at UAF in the near future.

DEVELOPMENT OF SISAL FIBERDECORTICATING MACHINEl Sisal fibre has great potential of generating

revenue for the country for being using as substitute of jute fibre as the tensile properties of Sisal fibre are superior to that of Jute fibre.

l Sisal can grow in the poor soil and sloping terrains which do not suit other plants.

l Sisal fibre decorticator has been designed and developed in the department of Fibre & Textile Technology University of Agriculture, Faisalabad.

l Decorticating action is more effective due to specially designed decorticating cylinder and knives.

l The fibres come out clean and are almost free of green matter.

SOLARDEHYDRATORDepartment of Physics

Food drying is an excellent solar energy application since food drying primarily requires heat, and solar radiation is easily converted to heat. A clear or translucent glazing allows sunlight to enter an enclosed chamber where it is converted to heat when it strikes a dark interior surface. Air flow is typically achieved with natural convection (warm air rises). Temperature is controlled by air flow using adjustable venting.

Factors affecting theSolar Dehydrationl Temperaturel Passive Air Flowl ‘Angle of Incidence’l Materialsl Insulation

TEMPERATURE IN SOLAR DEHYDRATORMost foods are dehydrated at 130°F(54°C) temperatures of 130°F, or 54°C, although meat should be dehydrated at a higher temperature of 155°F (68°C), or preheated to those temperature levels, to guard against pathogens that may be in the meat.

SOLAR OVEN

l A reflecting mirror of polished glass, metal or metalized film concentrates sunlight on a small cooking area.

l A black or low reflectivity surface on a food container or the inside of a solar cooker improves the effectiveness of reflecting light into heat.

l Light absorption converts the sun's visible light into heat.

l A plastic bag or tightly sealed glass cover traps the hot air inside the oven.

l Glass transmits visible light but blocks infrared thermal radiation from escaping. This amplifies the heat trapping effect.

Upto 300° F (150° C) is suitable for cooking. Food containing larger quantities of moisture cannot get much hotter than 212° F (100° C) so it is not necessary to cook at higher temperatures.

Mastitis Diagnostic Kitand Mastitis VaccineDepartment of Clinical Medicine & Surgery

l At least 20% cows and buffaloes in Pakistan produce unwholesome milk because of mastitis (inflammation or swelling of udder). Most of the diseased animals are affected by sub-clinical or hidden form of mastitis

l Milk of mastitis affected animal contains higher than normal number (200,000/ml) of white blood cells (pus cells).

l Increased number of white blood cells in milk can be detected by mixing milk with 3% solution of Surf Excel (Muhammad et al., 2010, Tropical Animal Health and Production, 42: 457-464) in equal proportion (Surf Field Mastitis Test; SFMT).

l To control the scourge of mastitis, several candidate mastitis vaccines investigated at University of Agriculture, Faisalabad.

l The most promising results in mastitis control obtained with a vaccine incorporating a biofilm producing local isolate of Staphylococcus aureus.

l Both SFMTkit and mastitis vaccine (MastipepTM) now commercially available as an output of an agreement inked between Business Incubation Center, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad and UM Enterprises, Karachi.
