Let G be a finite abelian group of exponent m, and k a positive integer. Let s_km(G) be the smallest integer t such that every sequence of t elements in G contains a zero-sum subsequence of length km. In this paper, we determine s_km(G) for some special groups G and study the number of zero-sum subsequences of length m.
