(5ci)
Introduction : It involves bringing in animals or germplasm (semen, embryos, or genetic material) from outside sources that possess desirable traits or genetic characteristics.

(5cii)
Selection: This refer to the process of choosing animals with desirable traits as parents for the next generation.

(5ciii)
Breeding : This refer to the various techniques and approaches used to mate animals with the goal of improving specific traits or genetic characteristics within a population.


(5d)
(PICK ANY FIVE)

(i)Animal improvement aims to balance the need for genetic improvement with the preservation of genetic diversity within populations.
(ii)Enhancing reproductive performance is a critical aim in animal improvement
(iii)To enhance the resistance and resilience of animals to diseases, parasites, and other health issues.
(iv) Animal improvement helps to enhance the productivity of animals.
(v) Animal improvement aims to achieve genetic progress over generations.
(vi)Animal improvement programs helps to improved animal welfare, ease of management, and safety.
(vii)Animal improvement programs helps to ensure the animals can thrive in their respective production environments.

(2ai)
Malnutrition in animal husbandry refers to the condition in which an animal does not receive adequate amounts of required nutrients such as protein vitamins and minerals necessary for proper growth development and maintenance of bodily functions.

(2aii)
(i) Calcium
(ii) Methionine
(iii) Lysine

(2aiii)
(i) Maize: Provides energy in the form of carbohydrates needed for growth and maintenance of body functions.
(ii) Fishmeal: Rich source of high-quality protein omega-3 fatty acids and essential micronutrients like vitamins and minerals that aid in growth and maintenance of feather quality immune system and other functions.
(iii) Groundnut cake: Contains protein and essential amino acids that are important for poultry growth and development.
(iv) Oyster shell: Provides calcium required for proper bone development and eggshell formation.

(2b)
[PICK ANY TWO]
(i) To monitor and evaluate bird performance: Keeping records of feed consumption weight gain and egg production helps farmers to monitor bird performance and detect any issues such as sickness or poor growth rate.
(ii) To manage feed and medication usage: Records of feed and medication consumption help farmers to manage their stock and plan for future usage.
(iii) To keep track of expenses and income: Keeping financial records is essential for budgeting and making informed business decisions.
(iii) To comply with regulatory requirements: Some poultry farming activities require keeping records to comply with regulations and standards.
(iv) To plan for future production: Records help farmers to forecast future production and plan for necessary adjustments to optimize production.
(v) To improve efficiency: Analyzing records of feed conversion cost of production and bird performance helps farmers to identify areas where efficiency can be improved and implement necessary changes.

(2c)
[PICK ANY FOUR]
(i) Ensure proper drainage: Liver flukes require damp environments to complete their life cycle so proper drainage will help to reduce their population.
(ii) Avoid overgrazing: Overgrazing of pasture by livestock can damage the grass and create ideal conditions for liver fluke infestation.
(iii) De-worm regularly: De-worming of livestock helps to prevent liver fluke infestation by killing the immature stages of the parasite.
(iv) Rotate pasture: Regularly rotating livestock to different pastures helps to break the life cycle of liver flukes by interrupting their access to required habitat.
(v) Boil drinking water: Boiling water for drinking by livestock prevents them from ingesting snails which can harbor infective stages of liver flukes.
(vi) Use snail control measures: Controlling snail populations in water sources and pastures is an effective way of preventing liver fluke infestation in livestock.

(4ai)
Parasites are organisms that live in or on a host organism, deriving nutrients from the host while potentially causing harm

(4aii)
pests refer to organisms that can cause harm, nuisance, or economic damage to livestock or the production environment.
