Time to Revisit Oil Palm-Livestock Integration in the Wake of United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2021
To date, the idea of using livestock animals as biological tools to manage weeds, sequester carbon, and boost food security in oil palm plantations has not been seriously considered by industry stakeholders of major producing countries (e.g., Indonesia ...

INTEGRATED CROP-LIVESTOCK-FOREST SYSTEM FOR SHEEPS AND GOATS

Científic@ - Multidisciplinary Journal, 2018
The Crop-Livestock-Forest Integration (ILPF) is a soil management that, if conducted with the recommended technical and agronomic principles, allows the maximization of productivity leveraged by sustainability. The chemical, physical and biological attributes of the soil should be evaluated, based on soil and water management and conservation needs, as

Phytosociological Survey of Weeds in Areas of Crop-Livestock Integration

American Journal of Plant Sciences, 2014
The dynamics of the weeds in the areas of crop-livestock integration is constantly changing depending on the various uses of the area. This study identified and quantified the floristic composition of weeds in areas of integration of maize for silage with Urochloa ruziziensis cv.

Research Note: An in vitro hypothalamic slice culture model from adult geese for investigating light-mediated regulation of avian reproduction

Poultry Science
The avian hypothalamus regulates reproduction by integrating light signals through deep brain photoreceptors, yet suitable adult in vitro models remain lacking. In this study, we established a functional hypothalamic slice culture system from adult geese.

Soil water dynamics and yield in maize and Brachiaria ruziziensis intercropping

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2020
In intercropping systems, a high plant density can delay the biomass accumulation and affect the water availability to plants. This study aimed to evaluate the soil water dynamics and the crop yield performance in maize and Brachiaria ruziziensis ...

Comparing the Sustainability and Circularity of Two Livestock Production Systems in the Sierra Norte of Puebla, Mexico

Biology and Life Sciences Forum, 2023
In this study, integrated crop–livestock production systems (ISG) were compared against intensive (RF) and semi-intensive feedlot systems (FS). A sustainability evaluation incorporating multidimensional indicators and a circularity assessment using ...

Transhumance, Livestock Mobility and Mutual Benefits Between Crop and Livestock Production

, 2018
Grazing-based livestock production, named pastoralism, is classified into nomadism, transhumance and agro-pastoralism. Transhumance is characterised by the seasonal and recurring movement of livestock whereby seasonal grazing areas and routes for ...
