Use of natural ensiling additives with tropical grasses: Physicochemical properties, in vitro fermentation characteristics, and microbial community diversity indices

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Improving feed quality, availability, and cost‐effectiveness is a big challenge for livestock to ensure animal‐derived food for nutritional security. The aim of the study was to find out how some natural ensiling additives affect physicochemical properties, proximate composition, microbial population, in vitro fermentation ...

In situ degradability of corn stover and elephant-grass harvested at four stages of maturity

open access: yes, 2008
Among tropical forages, corn silage is largely used by farmers trying to explore the maximum genetic potential from the animals. However, other tropical forages, such as elephant-grass (Pennisetum purpureum), are more productive and therefore cheaper to ...

Tackling saiga horn consumption in Singapore: From consumer insights to intervention co‐design

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The illegal and unsustainable wildlife trade is a key driver of biodiversity loss, and reducing consumer demand is recognised as a critical step in addressing it. However, studies understanding the drivers of wildlife product consumption and identifying effective strategies to reduce it remain very limited.

The Application of Autonomous Fixed‐Wing Drones in the Sub‐Antarctic Operating Beyond Visual Line of Sight to Enable Large Area, Multi‐Species Population Monitoring in a Changing Environment

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Autonomous fixed‐wing drones operating beyond visual line of sight of the pilot were used to conduct the first aerial, multi‐species baseline reference survey at the sub‐Antarctic island of South Georgia. Long‐term population monitoring in this remote, challenging environment has historically proved difficult, with terrestrial monitoring generally ...
