Abstract

Prevention and treatment of malaria. The possibility of the meat rabbit production in developing countries with reference to Mozambique situation is treated. The rabbit husbandry in Mozambique is feasible but the cultural passage from the passive rearing habits to a modem intensive technological rearing it will be neither easy nor next to corne. Three kinds of husbandry could be possible in Mozambique : a) intensive b) complementary and c) family husbandry ; a) can be made only in well organized farm and the limits for intensive husbandry are given by the agricultural condition of the farm itself, b) and c) may be undertaken where rabbit is already known. Local medium-light rabbits, adapted to the climate, are to be preferred and, in intensive husbandry, minimum production for farms balance will be 8 (eight) sold rabbits/doe/year. Rabbit husbandry in Mozambique could be successful, even if this cannot solve the problem of animal proteins supply in a short time.
