Trials of Improved Practices (TIPs)

Guiding notes for TIPs trainers and implementers

Year of publication 2011

Author Nutrition Division

Product type Book (stand-alone)

Edition 1

Synopsis (short abstract) These Guiding Notes provide instructions to trainers on how to conduct each session when training provincial supervisors and district TIPs implementers who implement the Trials of Improved Practices. District TIPs implementers will use the same Guiding Notes for training Community Nutrition Promoters (CNPs) who will be responsible for promoting and disseminating tested nutritionally improved complementary feeding.

    Purpose of these Reference Notes and Tools The Reference Notes and Tools for TIPs trainers and implementers come in 2 parts. PART I consists of Reference Notes which provide technical information on basic nutrition and how to facilitate improved feeding practices in communities using a simplifi ed version of the methodology known as Trials of Improved Practices (TIPs), before wider dissemination and promotion of improved child and family feeding recommendations. PART II consists of TIPs Tools. There are 8 TIPs tools for use by different key players during TIPs implementation. They included tools for: ƒn „P Use during home visits (to be conducted by district TIPs implementers) ƒn „P Summarizing and analysing outcomes of the home visits ƒn „P Compiling information and experiences gained during the trials. The TIPs Tools also include guidance on when and how to each tool should be used.

    Improvement of Milk Production from Kenana Cattle Breed in the Sudan Through Delivery of Improved Feeding and Husbandry Practices and Biotechnology Techniques (Artificial Insemination) - TCP/SUD/3805 2025
    Also available in:

    The Sudan has a significant need and substantial potential to increase milk and beef production from Kenana and Butana cattle breeds. Kenana cattle are primarily raised for milk in villages, urban areas, and semi-nomadic settings, grazing naturally and relying on crop residues from rain-fed agricultural systems. Along with Butana cattle breed, Kenana cattle are among the top milk producers in the Sudan and serve as valuable sources of quality bulls and dams for genetic improvement in other states. However, the full potential of these promising dairy breeds has not yet been realized due to factors such as inadequate breeding technologies and poor feeding practices, even though effective strategies are achievable at a relatively low cost. Following independence, the Sudanese government established two livestock research stations in 1957 for the genetic conservation of Butana and Kenana cattle breeds. The Um Banien Livestock Production Research Station in Sinnar State was set up to improve the Kenana breed through selective breeding, produce elite Kenana bulls for distribution, and conduct research on forage production and animal feeding. However, the station was severely damaged and neglected in the early 1990s, resulting in a halt to its activities despite the significant local genetic resources available.
