Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.Livestock feeding in the Korahey Zone, Somali Region, Ethiopia, is predominantly based on free grazing of natural pasture (75%), with camels and goats being the dominant livestock species. The annual feed supply from natural pasture (2196 tDM) satisfies only 54.6% of the livestock dry matter requirement (4023.68 tDM), resulting in a substantial ...

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.Whole fodder beet silage (with/without Lactobacillus buchneri) in sheep diets improved dry matter intake and rumen fermentation compared to tops or bulbs alone. Although corn silage showed highest digestibility, whole beet silage—especially with LB—demonstrated promising rumen pH, NH3‐N and acetate:propionate ratio, serving as a viable alternative feed.

Thermal‐UAV assisted detection and relocation of roe deer fawns in managed grasslands
Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.Advancements in modern fodder production have unintentionally increased wildlife mortality during grass mowing operations. Roe deer Capreolus capreolus fawns are particularly vulnerable because they remain motionless as a predator‐avoidance strategy. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with thermal sensors offer a promising method for detecting ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 2918-2931, September 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Phosphorus (P) is an essential but often limiting nutrient for sustaining grassland ecosystem functions. Its soil dynamics are highly sensitive to land management practices and may vary across soil aggregate sizes due to differences in biotic and abiotic factors ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 9, September 2026.We propose an evidence‐based system that prescribes context‐specific exclusion dates based on three simple criteria: target species, latitude and agricultural activity. This framework would allow policy to account for complex phenological variation, significantly improving breeding outcomes, while remaining administratively manageable and scalable.

Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 77, Issue 3, Page 1034-1049, September 2026.ABSTRACT Regional crop‐livestock integration can reduce dependence on external inputs and improve circularity, but its implementation requires coordination across heterogeneous farms and may generate uneven welfare losses due to technical, economic and behavioural factors, including social norms and peer effects.

Effect of Gliricidia sepium leaves and molasses inclusion on aerobic stability, value and digestibility of Napier grass silage [PDF]
Malaysian Journal of Animal Science, 2016 Most tropical roughage feeds are generally deficient in nitrogen, energy or some minerals and vitamins. A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of adding Gliricidia (Gliricidia sepium) leaves and molasses to Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum ...
