Spatial heterogeneity in exposure to Brucella suis and pathogenic leptospires in feral pigs across New South Wales

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Feral pigs (Sus scrofa) are important reservoirs for zoonotic and livestock pathogens in Australia, but robust information on the spatial distribution of pathogens in pig populations remains limited. We analysed serological data from a systematic, state‐wide surveillance program to investigate spatial heterogeneity in exposure to Brucella suis and ...

Global beef production: Trends, challenges, and opportunities for sustainable development

Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Sustainable livestock systems require managing trade‐offs and synergies across productive, socioeconomic, and environmental dimensions to meet rising global beef demand. We present a biophysical framework to analyze how management‐driven energy allocation is manifested through herd size and total and per‐head beef productivity.

Effects of Ceftiofur and Chlortetracycline on the Resistomes of Feedlot Cattle [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2018
ABSTRACT Treatment of food-producing animals with antimicrobial drugs (AMD) is controversial because of concerns regarding promotion of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). To investigate this concern, resistance genes in metagenomic bovine fecal samples during a clinical trial were analyzed to assess the impacts of treatment on beef ...
