Mudanças no conceito de visão do mundo das pessoas estão mudando devido à limitação dos recursos naturais, questões de origem ética sobre o bem-estar de animais, emergência e re-emergência de enfermidades e qualidade dos alimentos. A sociedade começou a se interessar mais em saber como seu alimento é produzido e exigir produtos que sejam ?limpos, verdes e éticos?, em que se preconiza o uso de práticas que minimizem ou evitem completamente tratamentos químicos ou hormonais nos animais e preservem, dessa forma, a saúde humana. Bem-estar é um termo amplo que inclui uma somatória de elementos que contribuem para a qualidade de vida do animal, levando-o a um bom estado de harmonia com o seu ambiente, caracterizado por condições físicas e fisiológicas adequadas.... |

ABSTRACT In the last decades animal production has considerably increased worldwide to sustain an ever-growing human population. Among animal reared for consumption purposes, chickens are undoubtedly one of the most successful, mainly due to their rapid growth rate. The development of broiler farming has been accompanied in recent years by a substantial attention to animal welfare. This study is aimed at assessing the effects of different housing conditions on both feed conversion ratio and mortality of male broiler flocks through a large-scale study (more than 100 million birds) involving 977 farms belonging to one major producer. For this, we evaluated nine features of the housing system using a linear model with random effect. The features were:... |

The extant literature on fat taxes and thin subsidies tends to focus on the overall effectiveness of such fiscal instruments in altering diets and improving health. However, little is known about the welfare impacts of fiscal food policies on society. This paper fills a gap in the literature by assessing the distributional impacts and welfare effects resulting from a tax-subsidy combination on different food groups. Using the methods derived from marginal tax reform theory, a formal welfare economics framework is developed allowing the calculation of the distributional characteristics of various food groups and approximate welfare measures of prices changes caused by a tax-subsidy combination. The distributional characteristics reveal that many of the food... |

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to compare the effects of beak trimming by hot blade or infrared radiation on production indicators and plasma levels of corticosterone in pullets. During the rearing phase, an entirely random delineation was used a 2 x 3 factorial design (two different techniques for beak trimming x 3 strains), a total of six treatments with six repetitions of 20 hens. In the growing phase, the previous treatments were divided into 12, with eight repetitions with seven hens. These treatments were then distributed in a factorial design of 2 x 3 x 2 (two methodologies for beak trimming during rearing phase x three strains x with or without beak trimming at ten weeks of age). In the rearing phase the birds treated by infrared radiation had... |
