Is a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Marker in the Cholecystokinin A Receptor Gene Practically Suitable for Improving the Growth Traits of Hinai-jidori Chickens?

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2020
We have previously reported a significant association between the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP; g.420 C>A) in the cholecystokinin type A receptor gene (CCKAR) and the growth traits of Hinai-dori, a breed of chicken that is indigenous to Japan ...

Biological Rhythm in Livestock

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Science, 2002
The animal time structure is a basic fact of life, no matter if one wants to study it or not. The time-dependent, mostly rhythmic, and thus to a certain degree predictable, variations of biochemical and physiological functions and of sensitivity and resistance to many environmental agents are often quite large and offer not only new insight into animal

Prediction of Food Production Using Machine Learning Algorithms of Multilayer Perceptron and ANFIS [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Advancing models for accurate estimation of food production is essential for policymaking and managing national plans of action for food security. This research proposes two machine learning models for the prediction of food production. The adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and multilayer perceptron (MLP) methods are used to advance

King and Cochrane: The technological treadmill and racial inequity in US agriculture

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Between 1920 and 1969, the number of Black farmers in the US decreased from 14% of all operators to 4%. Using Martin Luther King Jr.'s critique of agricultural policy and Willard Cochrane's theory of the technological treadmill, we explore how racial discrimination was linked to policies that led to structural change in US agriculture.
