Environmentally adjusted productivity growth and shadow prices for dairy farms

Canadian Journal of Agricultural Economics/Revue canadienne d'agroeconomie, Volume 74, Issue 2, Page 99-123, June 2026.
Abstract We estimate the environmentally adjusted productivity growth and shadow price for Ontario dairy farms. We use an input‐oriented directional distance function and farm‐level data from 2000 to 2020. First, we find that while GHG emissions per cow increase with higher milk yields, emission intensity decreases as milk yield per cow increases.

Impact of Astaxanthin Concentration in Extender on Sperm Kinetics and Lipid Peroxidation After Cryopreservation in Beef Bulls

Reproduction in Domestic Animals, Volume 61, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cellular damage caused by changes in temperature and osmolarity during cryopreservation primarily results in excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These damages compromise the plasma membrane and reduce sperm fertility. Antioxidants help mitigate these effects.
