From June until September 2024, the first research activities within the SUSCAMI project have been conducted. Camel herders from Fantale district (East Shewa zone) and from different districts in Borana zone were interviewed to assess the husbandry, feeding, breeding and health care management of camels (Tasks 2.1 and 3.1). Data will serve to define criteria to select camel herds for monitoring of camels' re-/productive performances (Task 2.2) and health status (Task 3.2) as well as feeding behavior (Task 2.3) planned for the main dry and rainy season of 2024 / 2025.
