Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The integrated crop‐livestock system (ICLS) involves rural households simultaneously engaging in crop cultivation and livestock rearing, embodying the principles of a circular bioeconomy. In this system, crop cultivation produces straw as livestock feed, while livestock rearing generates manure that enriches the soil for crop production.

Culicoides species involved in the BTV‐3 epidemic, the Netherlands, 2023–2024
Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 111-122, March 2026.A high amount of Culicoides‐midges were captured using Onderstepoort light traps on farms with animals infected with bluetongue serotype 3 (BTV‐3) at the beginning of the outbreak in 2023. Species, sex and parity of the captured Culicoides‐midges were morphologically determined and gravid and parous Culicoides‐midges have been selected and pooled for ...
