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.

Replacement Heifer Development
, 1990 Effective replacement heifer development is a critical segment of the integrated management program in an efficient beef cow production system. The main objective should be to develop an adequate number of heifers to a point where they reach puberty and ...

An Economic and Environmental Analysis of Virtual Fencing for Precision Grazing
Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 77, Issue 3, Page 1018-1033, September 2026.ABSTRACT The UK grazing livestock sector is challenged by declining farm profitability and stringent environmental policy. Innovative technologies such as virtual fencing could enable a balanced economic and environmental performance of beef production. Virtual fencing is a livestock management tool relying on invisible boundaries perceived as auditory,

Genetic Relationships Between Residual Gain and Economically Important Traits in Nellore Cattle
Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 5, Page 658-666, September 2026.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.
