Current Trends, Future Prospects and Constraints of Whole Microalgae and Their Fractions as a Functional Feed Ingredient for Animals

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 110, Issue 3, Page 324-338, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Microalgae are a highly diverse group of unicellular organisms that grow in a wide range of aquatic environments and are widely used as dietary supplements for both human and animal applications. Microalgae are rich in lipids, proteins, carbohydrates and other valuable bioactive components such as pigments, antioxidants and vitamins.

Dynamics of postnatal bone development and epiphyseal synostosis in the caprine autopod

Developmental Dynamics, Volume 255, Issue 4, Page 417-429, April 2026.
Abstract Background Bones develop to structurally balance strength and mobility. Bone developmental dynamics are influenced by whether an animal is ambulatory at birth. Precocial species, which are ambulatory at birth, develop advanced skeletal maturity in utero and experience postnatal development under mechanical loading.

Early insulin release following suckling in neonatal lambs and rabbits [PDF]

Diabetologia, 1979
Developmental changes in the plasma insulin response to milk ingestion have been determined in neonatal lambs fed by bottle and in naturally suckled infant rabbits. In lambs at 4 days of age and older plasma insulin increased within 5 min of suckling and declined again before increasing to a second peak 60 to 120 min after the feed.

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

New 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

New 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.
