Environmentally adjusted productivity growth and shadow prices for dairy farms
Abstract We estimate the environmentally adjusted productivity growth and shadow price for Ontario dairy farms. We use an input‐oriented directional distance function and farm‐level data from 2000 to 2020. First, we find that while GHG emissions per cow increase with higher milk yields, emission intensity decreases as milk yield per cow increases.

Sustainable control of cyathostomin infections in practice
Summary Cyathostomins are the most prevalent helminths in horses and are found in nearly all grazing groups. These parasites have been shown to exhibit widespread anthelmintic resistance and can cause clinical disease, so they are a growing concern.

Summary Alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists provide analgesia when used as sole agents but can also be used in combination with other drugs for their additive and potentially synergistic effects. Further, because of their effects on blood flow, alpha‐2‐adrenoreceptor agonists act to extend and perhaps intensify the effects of drugs, such as local ...

Abstract Background Arsenic poisoning in horses is rarely reported in the literature. However, arsenic compounds can be present in rodenticides, pesticides, and herbicides, representing a potential source of accidental exposure for horses. Objective To describe the epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory findings from a herd of 31 horses exposed to ...

RNA‐Seq analysis revealed differentially expressed genes linked to seed size variation in sainfoin
Abstract Sainfoin is a perennial forage legume with many desirable characteristics such as easy to establish, bloat‐free trait for grazing ruminants and providing pollinator habitat and biological nitrogen fixation to soil. However, adoption of this species is often hindered by high seed cost associated with its larger seed size compared to other ...
