Differences in Milk Production Efficiency and Physiology Between Lactating Holstein Cows and Yaks Born and Kept at About 4000 m of Altitude When Fed the Same Diet

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Yaks (Bos grunniens) have developed numerous mechanisms to cope with hypoxic environments. Still, as their milk yield is low, the use of production systems building on dairy breeds at high altitude might increase efficiency, but this has not yet been explored.

Modeling antimicrobial fate in the circular food system

open access: yesRisk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract The livestock sector plays a critical role in the circular food production system, but excessive use of antimicrobials (AMs) in livestock farming can lead to AM residue contamination in human food. CirFSafe, a model framework was developed to predict the fate of five different AMs in a primary circular food production system, comprising mixed ...

SILAGE QUALITY OF CORN AND SORGHUM ADDED WITH FORAGE PEANUTS

open access: yesRevista Caatinga, 2016
Corn and sorghum are standard silage crops because of their fermentative characteristics. While corn and sorghum silages have lower crude protein (CP) contents than other crops, intercropping with legumes can increase CP content.
