Biomass Sources, synthesis techniques, structures, applications, and contribution toward SDG goals of biomass‐derived carbon nanomaterials. ABSTRACT Plant life has dominated this planet from the beginning of time. With over 82% of biomass (BM) coming from plants, primarily trees, plants are the dominant form of life on Earth.

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

Effects of rumen-protected methionine, lysine, and histidine on lactation performance of dairy cows.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of supplementing a metabolizable protein (MP)-deficient diet with rumen-protected (RP) Met, Lys, and His, individually or combined, on the performance of lactating dairy cows. The experiment was a 9-

Converting New Zealand Slash into S‐doped Electrode Materials for High‐performance Supercapacitors
Slash is a waste product generated from commercial forestry operations. In 2022, flooding slash caused devastating damage when Cyclone Gabrielle directly impacted the Hawke’s Bay region of New Zealand. This study addresses the dual challenges of waste management and sustainable materials development by converting forestry slash into high‐performance ...

Association of abortion history with the presence of anti-Neospora caninum antibodies in dairy cows
Neospora caninum is an important cause of abortions in dairy cattle, leading to severe economic losses. The objective of this study was to determine the association of serum antibodies against N. caninum with a history of abortion in dairy cows.

Milk production and survival of spring-calving carryover cows in New Zealand dairy herds : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Animal Science at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]
Non-pregnant cows are generally culled from dairy herds and replaced with two-year-old heifers. Alternatively, non-pregnant cows can be dried-off at the end of lactation, retained for one year (carried over), before being mated and returned to a milking ...

Prevalence, survival and subsequent fertility of dairy and beef cows with uterine prolapse [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of uterine prolapse in cows and assess its effects on survival and subsequent fertility. Of 33,450 calving cows considered retrospectively, 216 (0.6%) developed uterine prolapse.

Parity differences in the behavior of transition dairy cows.
During the transition period, around the time of calving, cows experience a suite of stressful events, including regrouping, diet changes, parturition, and the onset of lactation. These changes may be more difficult for primiparous cows that have not had
