Effect of stocking density on pig production [PDF]
Numerous stressors such as environmental, nutritional, pathological or equipment related ones are operative in swine facilities. Among many factors, socking density increases social stress and influences pig performance. Many studies have reported that reducing space allowance could induce decreases in growth performance of pigs.

High-stocking density is one of the factors that can easily cause oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction of broilers. Currently, music therapy has been proposed to help animals relieve stress to some extent.

Utilization and grazing distribution of cattle at 4 stocking densities [PDF]
The relationship between stocking density and grazing distribution was studied in eastern Nebraska pastures seeded to a warm-season, tall-grass mixture and grazed at 4 stocking densities: 9, 18, 27, and 54 steers ha-1. Each of 4 pastures was divided into 4 paddocks ranging in size from 0.18 to 1.12 ha.

Using spatial distribution and behaviour to determine optimal space allowances for poultry and rabbits [PDF]
Previous research on the effect of stocking density on welfare has focused on adverse effects on health and behaviour. Absence of such effects does not mean that space allowance is optimal from the animals’ point of view.

Carbon stocks in tropical forests decrease with liana density [PDF]
Tropical forests are experiencing structural changes that may reduce carbon storage potential. The recent increase in liana abundance and biomass is one such potential change. Lianas account for approximately 25 per cent of woody stems and may have a strong impact on tree dynamics because severe liana infestation reduces tree growth and increases tree ...

Impact of Zinc Supplementation and Stocking Density on Performance, Physiological and Immune Responses in Broiler Chickens [PDF]
The current research was completed to examine the impacts of dietary enrichment with zinc oxide and stocking density on performance, plasma concentration of thyroid hormones, corticosterone(cort) and immune response and antioxidant status in cobb 500 ...

SEA RANCHING OF Holothuria atra: STOCKING DENSITY AND TIME [PDF]
Strong market demand, uncontrolled exploitation, and inadequate fisheries resource management have caused the overexploitation of sea cucumbers. Hence, sea ranching has been suggested as an intervention to overcome, or at least minimize, this problem ...
