Temporal and seasonal trends of bovine tuberculosis in the Irish cattle population (2008–2024)
Abstract Background Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) has substantial impacts on the Irish cattle industry. Between 2016 and 2024, its burden increased in Irish cattle. As an initial step towards understanding drivers of this increase, we explore long‐term trends in measures of bTB burden and cattle demographics in Ireland. Methods Using data from 2008 to 2024,

The transportation of livestock poses an increased risk of disease transmission, with transportation vehicles acting as vectors for disease. Biosecurity management within the livestock industry is therefore critical to reduce the risk of disease transmission. This study investigated the current biosecurity practices of stakeholders within the livestock

Genetic Relationships Between Residual Gain and Economically Important Traits in Nellore Cattle
ABSTRACT Sustainable beef production requires identifying animals with superior feed efficiency to reduce environmental impact and production costs. This study aimed to estimate heritability and genetic correlations between residual gain (RG) and growth, reproductive, carcass and feed efficiency traits in Nellore cattle.

ABSTRACT Understanding how nutritional management and genetic background influence hepatic metabolism is important for improving the nutritional quality of bovine products in tropical production systems. This study evaluated breed‐associated differences under a common dietary regimen and diet‐related differences within the Nelore breed with respect to ...

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

Enterobacteria in Feedlot Waste and Runoff [PDF]
Samples of beef cattle feedlot waste (FLW), runoff from the pens, and water from a large drainage ditch at the feedlot were examined for Enterobacteriaceae . The drainage ditch receives the runoff but contains primarily subsurface drainage from fields on which FLW is spread for disposal ...
