Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Agronomy

Animal science, Dry matter, Straw, Evaluation data and Energy requirement are his primary areas of study. His work deals with themes such as Rumen and Fodder, which intersect with Animal science. He works mostly in the field of Rumen, limiting it down to concerns involving Tannin and, occasionally, Acacia and Calliandra calothyrsus.

His Dry matter research incorporates elements of Eragrostis and Sesbania sesban. His Sesbania sesban study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Leucaena leucocephala and Chamaecytisus. His Straw study deals with the bigger picture of Agronomy.

His most cited work include:

  • Nutrient requirements of goats: developed equations, other considerations and future research to improve them (120 citations)
  • Graded levels of Sesbania sesban and Leucaena leucocephala as supplements to teff straw given to Ethiopian Menz sheep (77 citations)
  • The relationships between gas production and chemical composition of 23 browses of the genus Sesbania (76 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Animal science, Agronomy, Rumen, Dry matter and Botany. His work in Animal science addresses subjects such as Forage, which are connected to disciplines such as Pennisetum purpureum. His Rumen research includes themes of Incubation, Tannin and Nitrogen.

His Dry matter research focuses on Acacia sieberiana and how it relates to Silage. Ignatius V. Nsahlai has researched Botany in several fields, including Dry season and Wet season. His Sesbania research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Fodder and Lablab purpureus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Animal science (69.29%)
  • Agronomy (33.07%)
  • Rumen (29.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Animal science (69.29%)
  • Dry matter (25.20%)
  • Forage (12.60%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Ignatius V. Nsahlai mainly focuses on Animal science, Dry matter, Forage, Meal and Brachiaria. His work on Hay as part of general Animal science study is frequently linked to Stover, bridging the gap between disciplines. Ignatius V. Nsahlai interconnects Nutrient, Fibre content, Temperate climate and Chemical composition in the investigation of issues within Dry matter.

His Forage research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Agroforestry, Sowing, Agricultural productivity, Seasonality and Arid. His Meal research incorporates themes from Litter, Broiler and Period. His work focuses on many connections between Brachiaria and other disciplines, such as Pennisetum purpureum, that overlap with his field of interest in Organic matter and Crossbreed.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Effects of saline water consumption on physiological responses in Nguni goats (13 citations)
  • Farmer perceptions on factors influencing water scarcity for goats in resource-limited communal farming environments. (7 citations)
  • Selected southern African medicinal plants with low cytotoxicity and good activity against bovine mastitis pathogens (7 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Agronomy

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Animal science, Forage, Crossbreed, Pennisetum purpureum and Dry matter. His Animal science research integrates issues from Body weight, Rumen, Agronomy and Liter. His studies in Body weight integrate themes in fields like Water intake, Rectal temperature and Respiration rate, Respiration.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Urea, Meal and Morning. His Forage study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Organic matter, Legume and Animal feed. The various areas that he examines in his Crossbreed study include Weight gain and Feed conversion ratio.
