Effects of Lycium barbarum Residue Substituting Dietary Maize on Fecal Microbiota and Growth Performance of Crossbred Simmental Cattle

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The bioactive substances we extracted from Lycium barbarum residue (LBR) have a typical polysaccharide structure. When 1.80% LBR was used to replace maize in the diet, the average daily gain of rossbred Simmental was significantly increased, and anti‐inflammatory ability was improved. In addition, LBR improved the fecal microbial composition, increased

Adaptation and evaluation of a mechanistic grass growth simulation model for grass-based systems

, 2013
An accurate grass growth model would be a valuable tool in anticipating grass growth and grass utilization at farm level. Ideally, a grass growth simulation model must be accurate, dynamic, use realistic input parameters and incorporate meteorological data. The objective of this study was to parameterize the grass growth model developed by Jouven et al.

Exploring the early observations of parents supporting their children with school attendance problems (SAPs): A co‐produced study

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract School Attendance Problems (SAPs) represent a significant challenge requiring early identification and intervention. Current service provision often does not recognise early indicators that parents observe, creating gaps between when initial concerns are raised and formal support is provided.

Comparative Assessment of Landsat‐8 and SPOT‐7 Satellite Data With Field Spectral Measurements for Estimating Plant Diversity in Sandy Grasslands

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
We compared Landsat‐8 OLI, SPOT, and hyperspectral data for estimating vascular plant diversity in China's Hunshandak Sandland. SPOT data showed the strongest correlation with alpha diversity, followed by hyperspectral data, with Landsat‐8 performing the weakest.

Evaluation of 3 equations based on grass height measurement for estimating grass stocks in pastures

, 2023
Despite its benefits, grazing is decreasing , in southern Belgium because of difficult management. In fact, farmers lack confidence in the amount of fodder available on the grasslands. The herbage mass (HM - kg DM/ha) is an essential data to estimate grass stocks.
