dc.description.abstract | Recurrent fodder scarcity across West Asia and North Africa poses a major threat to the fertility and performance of livestock herds, a mainstay of the region’s agricultural production systems. Cactus plants present a sustainable and cost-effective solution for the region’s pastoralists, providing a stable source of nutrients capable of maintaining healthy reproductive cycles. | en_US |
