Source identification and quantification of particulate matter emitted from livestock houses [PDF]

, 2010
There is need to identify and quantify the contribution of different sources to airborne particulate matter (PM) emissions from animal houses. To this end, we compared the chemical and morphological characteristics of fine and coarse PM from known ...

Effects of ammonia exposure on carcass traits and fatty acid composition of broiler meat

Animal Nutrition, 2016
We aimed to study the effects of ammonia on carcass traits, organ indices and fatty acid composition of broilers. Four hundred 21-d-old male Arbor Acres broilers with initial weight 563.52 ± 2.82 g were randomly allotted to 1 of 4 groups treated with ...

Surveying the Farmer Survey: A Synthesis of Research Practices in the Netherlands, Slovenia and Sweden

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research based on farmer surveys is a cornerstone of agricultural economics. Farmer surveys provide unique insights into behavioural variables—such as values, motivations, attitudes, behaviours, and preferences—that are unavailable in secondary datasets.

Distinct genes and pathways associated with transcriptome differences in early cardiac development between fast- and slow-growing broilers.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Modern fast-growing broilers are susceptible to cardiac dysfunctions because their relatively small hearts cannot adequately meet the increased need of pumping blood through a large body mass.

Evaluating broiler welfare and behavior as affected by growth rate and stocking density

Poultry Science
: This study evaluated the welfare and behaviors of Cobb 700 broilers as affected by growth rate (GR) and stocking density (SD). Slower-growth (weight gain < 50 g/d) and medium-growth (weight gain = 50–60 g/d) broilers were produced by providing 57.1 ...
