The Effect of Alternative Sheep–Beef Enterprise Mixes on Farm Productivity, Profitability and Predicted Enteric Methane Emissions in North Island Hill Country Farms

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
Sheep or beef cattle (cattle) share of total farm feed consumed, measured in stock units (SU) on New Zealand farms, is often adjusted depending on the profitability of each enterprise. The impact of these adjustments on whole‐farm productivity, profitability and predicted methane (CH4) output has not been recently explored. A system dynamics model of a

The use of Accelerometer Technology to Predict Time Budget and Head Shaking Behaviour in Ewes Managed on Pasture

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 2, April 2026.
This study aimed to evaluate a tri‐axial accelerometer attached to a collar to determine the ability to accurately predict rumination, lying, grazing, and head shaking behaviour of ewes on pasture. Collars with accelerometers recording at 1 Hz were attached to 30 Romney type ewes managed in groups of 5.

Glucosinolate hydrolysis products suppress entomopathogenic nematodes in vitro but do not protect sequestering flea beetle larvae in vivo

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 4, Page 3603-3612, April 2026.
The flea beetle's glucosinolate‐based chemical defense fails to protect larvae from nematode infection. However, the defense inhibits the nematode's symbiotic bacteria, thereby potentially impairing nematode reproduction and biocontrol success. Abstract BACKGROUND The efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) in the biological control of insect ...
