Compound‐Specific Stable Isotope Analysis Improves the Association Between Dairy Fatty Acid Biomarkers and Dairy Intake: A Secondary Analysis

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasing evidence suggests that dairy consumption may decrease the risk of chronic diseases. However, this association remains unclear due to methodological limitations. As a part of a secondary analysis, we used compound‐specific stable isotope analysis to increase the accuracy of the dairy FA biomarkers (15:0, 17:0), considering that each ...

Mapping the flow of conservation information across Wisconsin farming communities: Evidence from a social network analysis

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Adoption of conservation practices in US agriculture remains limited despite demonstrated environmental and social benefits. Farmer demonstration programmes aim to accelerate conservation adoption by leveraging peer‐to‐peer learning, yet there are unresolved questions about how conservation information moves through farming communities.

The Effect of the Season on the Behavior and Milk Yield of the Czech Fleckvieh Cows

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2016
The aim of this study was to evaluate the seasonal behavior and milk yield of dairy cows of Czech Fleckvieh cattle. The subject of the monitoring was one section (housed in one quarter of barn) with 103 free cubicle beds with an average of 95 lactating ...

Validation of mid-infrared spectrometry in milk for predicting body energy status in Holstein-Friesian cows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Cow energy balance is known to be associated with cow health and fertility; therefore, routine access to data on energy balance can be useful in both management and breeding decisions to improve cow performance.

Nature's values, drivers and perceived influence on ecosystem services shape agroecological livestock farming in the Netherlands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The environmental benefits of agroecological farm management have been demonstrated, but its uptake is still lagging. Understanding how specific practices relate to drivers and ecosystem services (ES), and what values of nature underlie those factors can be useful in understanding what type of practices are preferred by farmers under which ...

Research Progress on Methane Emission Reduction Strategies for Dairy Cows

open access: yesDairy
Methane (CH4) is the second largest greenhouse gas (GHG) after carbon dioxide (CO2), and ruminant production is an important source of CH4 emissions. Among the six types of livestock animal species that produce GHGs, cattle (including beef cattle and ...

α-Tocopherol in plasma and milk from organically managed dairy cows fed natural or synthetic vitamin E or seaweed

open access: yes, 2012
The objective was to compare the effects of supplementing lactating dairy cows with synthetic (All-rac), natural (RRR) α-tocopheryl acetate or seaweed with a control on the concentration of α-tocopherol in blood and milk.

Alteration of gene expression in mammary gland tissue of dairy cows in response to dietary unsaturated fatty acids

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of supplementing unprotected dietary unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) from different plant oils on gene expression in the mammary gland of grazing dairy cows.

Branched‐Chain Amino and Keto Acids Reduce Hepatocyte Lipid Droplet Size and Number via Distinct Proteomic Pathways

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Branched‐chain amino acids (BCAA) and their corresponding keto acids (BCKA) have been associated with changes in hepatic lipid metabolism and the resulting alterations in intracellular triglyceride concentrations. In this study, we utilized a previously established hepatocyte model to investigate the impact of BCAA and BCKA supplementation on ...
