Optimal foraging [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2022
Before visiting your local supermarket, do you write your food shopping list in the order you expect to encounter the items as you walk around, aisle by aisle? This way, you minimise your travel distance, saving time and effort. Many other animals do the same.

Neuroscience of foraging [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
The papers that accompany this Research Topic fall at the intersection of foraging theory and neuroscience. Why does such a topic merit a Research Topic in Frontiers in Decision Neuroscience? And what does foraging theory have to do with decision neuroscience?

Optimally frugal foraging

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2018
We introduce the \emph{frugal foraging} model in which a forager performs a discrete-time random walk on a lattice, where each site initially contains $\mathcal{S}$ food units. The forager metabolizes one unit of food at each step and starves to death when it last ate $\mathcal{S}$ steps in the past. Whenever the forager decides to eat, it consumes all

Examination of soils under grasslands in the territory of Kosjeric municipality [PDF]

open access: yesZemljište i biljka, 2019
For successful plant production, optimum conditions for microbiological processes need to be ensured, since micro-organisms play a vital role in maintaining fertility of the soil.

Dry Forages: Process and techniques (OK-Net EcoFeed Practice Abstract) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
To obtain the best forage quality, cutting at the correct time is important, when cellulose and lignin content is not too high. During spring, cutting early is the best option to preserve forage quality; for grasses, the correct time is beginning of ...

Protein fractions of intercropped pea and oat for ruminant nutrition [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology in Animal Husbandry, 2017
The quantification of the main crude protein (CP) fractions during the growing period of pea and oat mixtures may be used to optimize the forage management. The determination of protein fraction could improve balancing rations for ruminants.

Impact of non-protein nitrogen substances on grape pomace silage quality [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology in Animal Husbandry, 2015
In this study grape pomace was ensilaged without and with the addition of NPN substances (Benural) at the dose of 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5% of the amount of husk and with the addition of inoculant based on homo and hetero fermentative lactic acid bacteria.

Evaluation of genetic divergence and heritability in pea (Pisum sativum L.) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2016
An experiment on genetic evaluation of five genotypes of forage pea (Glyans, Svit, Kamerton, Modus, Pleven 4) was conducted during 2012-2014 period. Analysis of variance showed significant differences among genotypes for the traits pod width, seeds per ...

Effect of bacterial inoculants application and seeding rate on common vetch-oat silage quality [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology in Animal Husbandry, 2018
The experiment was carried out to evaluate the possibility of ensiling common vetch - oat mixtures sown at five different seeding rates. Two effects were studied: seeding rate of common vetch and oat in the mixtures and application of bacterial inoculant.
