| Since CIAT's founding in the late 60's, it has housed livestock and forage research activities. The early work focused on beef cattle and animal health-related issues in the extensive cow/calf systems in the South American savannas. It was later realized that the main constraint for livestock development in the neotropical savannas was inadequate feed resources. Thus in the late 70's the research emphasis was shifted from production systems and animal health to tropical forages. |
