Economic necessity for developing the milk sector [PDF]
The Merinos dominating in the Hungarian sheep industry and the profitability of sheep production is not as high as would be necessary. Economic analysis was made to find out the possible break-even points. According to the results, the increase of milk

Abstract BACKGROUND Direct fed microbials (DFM) are natural and safe enteric methane mitigants for ruminant livestock systems. While previous studies have demonstrated the effect of Lactobacillus spp. on methane mitigation, challenges remain in effectively delivering DFM in extensive grazing systems. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the

CONVERSION OF A LAMB PRODUCTION SYSTEM TO ORGANIC FARMING: HOW TO MANAGE, FOR WHICH RESULTS? [PDF]
Two sheep flocks were managed organically (for two years from conversion onwards) under different lambing strategies (1 lambing/year vs. 3 lambings every two years).

Milk yield, lamb birth weight and weaning weight responses to shearing during winter in sheep were investigated. A total of 46 Karayaka ewes were allocated into two treatment groups. Pregnant ewes in one group were shorn on day 100 of gestation (Shorn, n=24) and the remaining ewes were left unshorn to serve as controls (Unshorn, n=22).

Abstract The fetal circulation has unique shunts, including the ductus venosus (DV), the tone of which dictates how much substrate‐rich blood returning from the placenta is streamed preferentially away from the liver and instead towards the heart. Herein, we aimed to use clinically relevant MRI techniques in sheep to measure indirectly induced changes ...

Long term performance of organic farming in the hills and uplands - Redesdale and Pwllpeiran organic units - OF0368 [PDF]
During the 1990’s significant areas of hill and upland in the UK were converted to organic production. In the short term, this was driven by the downturn in conventional prices for beef and sheep, and the aid to conversion payments available.

Abstract Proton (1H) magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a non‐invasive imaging technique that can be used to assess brain metabolism. Establishing reference levels of fetal brain metabolites in a translatable preclinical model is crucial for identifying subtle deviations from normal cerebral development. Herein, we developed a 1H‐MRS protocol for

The effects of (i) herbage allowance, (ii) frequency of allocation and (iii) grass silage feed value on ewe and lamb performance were studied in mid-gestation ewes. Furthermore, the effects of (i) herbage allowance, (ii) frequency of allocation and (iii)
