Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.Cross‐sectional survey and retrospective data on the oestrus synchronization were collected and analysed. The predominant mating system practiced by dairy farmers was AI (55.6%), and 73.5% of farmers apply controlled mating. The highest response rate and pregnancy rate were 89.5% and 45.2%, respectively, whereas a birth rate of 9.6%–18.5% was obtained.

From Yield to Flavor: The Role of Lipid Coatings in Beef Aging
Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Lipid‐coated aging has been proposed as an alternative to enhance flavor, particularly using butter as a coating material (butter‐aged beef). Thus, this study compared the wet‐aged and beef‐aged with different lipid‐based coatings: milk butter (butter‐aged), cocoa butter (cocoa‐aged), pork lard (lard‐aged), and beef tallow (tallow‐aged), all ...

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 4, Page 496-507, July 2026.ABSTRACT Climate change has intensified the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, particularly methane (CH4) from enteric fermentation. Genetic selection has emerged as a promising mitigation strategy; however, studies on Bos taurus indicus, especially Nellore cattle, remain limited.
