Purchase and production optimization in a meat processing plant

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 1016-1051, March 2026.
Abstract This paper addresses an optimization problem concerning the purchase and subsequent material processing in a meat processing company. Unlike the majority of existing papers, we do not concentrate on how this problem concerns supply chain management, but we focus on the production stage, primarily the meat cutting.

Effect of Genotype, Gender, and Feed Restriction on Slaughter Results and Meat Quality of Broiler Chickens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Slaughter results and meat quality were evaluated in 768 broilers according to genotype (standard breast yield vs. high breast yield), gender, and feeding systems (ad libitum vs. feed restriction from 13 to 21 d of age).

Differences in intestinal size, structure, and function contributing to feed efficiency in broiler chickens reared at geographically distant locations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The contribution of the intestinal tract to differences in residual feed intake (RFI) has been inconclusively studied in chickens so far. It is also not clear if RFI-related differences in intestinal function are similar in chickens raised in different ...

Antibiotic-mediated changes in the fecal microbiome of broiler chickens define the incidence of antibiotic resistance genes

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2018
Antimicrobial agents have been widely used in animal farms to prevent and treat animal diseases and to promote growth. Antimicrobial agents may change the bacterial community and enhance the resistome in animal feces.

Impact of Organic and Inorganic Feeding Management on Water Quality, Growth Performance and Plankton Communities in Pond‐Based Polyculture of Major and Chinese Carp Species

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The current study assessed the impact of organic and inorganic feeding management on water quality, growth performance and plankton communities in a pond‐based polyculture system over 9 months, using three treatments: Ctrl (C), organic feeding (T1) and inorganic feeding (T2). Significant differences were observed in electrical conductivity (EC)

Quantitative Genetic Variation and Response for Harvest Body Weight in a Selection Program for Red Tilapia (Oreochromis spp.)

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic variation is indispensable for both natural and artificial selection, as well as evolution, adaptation, and the long‐term success of selective breeding programs. This study attempted to scrutinise genetic variations and responses within the breeding population of red tilapia across eight generations of selection (2016–2023).
