Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing

Agricultural and Food Science, 1979 Maize was harvested with a precision chopper and ensiled in five plastic tower silos, 1 500 kg fodder/silo. The silages and the ensiling methods were: 0.5 % urea per fresh weight (A), 1.0 % urea per fresh weight + Viher-acid 4 1/1000 kg of silage (B), 0.5 % urea per fresh weight + Viher-acid 4 1/1000 kg of silage (C).

Transportation of maize silage to biogas plants
Journal of Agricultural Engineering, 2020 Maize silage is one of the most used feedstock for the anaerobic digestion plants in Italy. As biomass, it is necessary to choose maize hybrids and sowing times to reach the maturity stage at the planned harvest period. In addition, the contractor has to set up transport chains considering distances and other factors affecting the forward speed in ...

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.Abstract Background Rectal examination is a routine procedure in bovine reproductive management, but its physiological impact may vary depending on the cow's age and parity. Stress responses during such procedures can negatively affect animal welfare and compliance, especially in inexperienced animals.

Feeding Practices and Welfare of Zoo‐Housed Giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis) on a Global Scale
Zoo Biology, EarlyView.We collected feeding and stereotypy information on 702 giraffes from 146 zoos from all over the world. Less appropriate diets were linked to more oral stereotypies. ABSTRACT Since giraffe feeding practices have only been reported for European and US facilities, this study aimed to achieve a comprehensive overview of the current giraffe feeding ...

Maize silage for dairy cows: mitigation of methane emissions can be offset bij and use change [PDF]
, 2010 Increasing the digestibility of cattle rations by feeding grains and whole plant silages from maize have been identified as effective options to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. The effect of ploughing grassland for maize crops have not been taken into

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In agriculture, production technologies are often characterised by non‐linearities and stochastic dependence between outputs, particularly between desirable and undesirable outputs. This paper combines the copula‐based semi‐parametric framework for modelling heterogeneous dependence with the by‐production stochastic frontier approach and ...
