Feeding Management of African Rhinos (Ceratotherium simum, Diceros bicornis) in European Zoos

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
The average estimated diets (in % dry matter) of white rhinos (C. simum) and black rhinos (D. bicornis) in European zoos differ in the proportion of (pelleted) compound feed and other non‐forage items. The reason for this difference is elusive but possibly related to creating more complicated diets for browsers. ABSTRACT White rhinos (WR, Ceratotherium

The Consequences of Soil Organic Carbon for Crop Yield, Farm Productivity and Profit

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crop choices affect soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, allowing farmers to manipulate the amount of carbon sequestered in the soil over time. This paper examines the private and public benefits of crop rotations that sequester additional carbon across the province of Saskatchewan, Canada using a novel field‐level dataset from the Saskatchewan ...

A Small Act Towards Circular Bioeconomy: Adoption of Integrated Crop‐Livestock System and Its Impacts on Fertiliser Use

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integrated crop‐livestock system (ICLS) involves rural households simultaneously engaging in crop cultivation and livestock rearing, embodying the principles of a circular bioeconomy. In this system, crop cultivation produces straw as livestock feed, while livestock rearing generates manure that enriches the soil for crop production.

Kraft Pulping of Wheat Straw

, 2017
In this paper, pulping of wheat straw with Kraft process was studied. Chemical and morphological properties of wheat straw fibers were also investigated. Chemical properties including cellulose (39.8%), hemicellulose (29.47%), lignin (20.98%), ash (6.27%) and extractives (4.1%) were determined.
