Refuge mounds, deworming, preventive vitaminization and mineralization

This technology describes the introduction of livestock refuge mounds in the sub-Amazonian eco-region of Bolivia (Department of Beni). It is a good practice to increase the resilience of cattle raisers to recurrent floods as well as to ensure water availability in the canals during dry spells. Livestock refuge mounds are small mounds covering an area of about 0.5 to 1 ha. They provide shelter for people, livestock and agricultural products during floods. In addition, animal treatments such as deworming and preventive vitaminization and mineralization were introduced or improved in the targeted communities in order to further reduce animal mortality in both normal and hazard conditions. This technology introduces the concepts of livestock refuge mounds, deworming and preventive vitaminization and mineralization, and presents a cost-benefit analysis of the combination of the three good practices compared to normal practices.
