ABSTRACT If the world population continues to increase exponentially, wealth and education inequalities might become more pronounced in the developing world. Thus, offering affordable, high-quality protein food to people will become more important and daunting than ever. Past and future challenges will increasingly demand quicker and more innovative and efficient solutions. Animal scientists around the globe currently face many challenging issues: from ensuring food security to prevent excess of nutrient intake by humans, from animal welfare to working with genetic-engineered animals, from carbon footprint to water footprint, and from improved animal nutrition to altering the rumen microbiome. Many of these issues are most likely to continue (or to... |

ABSTRACT Despite tremendous advancements in the livestock sector, additional opportunities exist to improve even further livestock production around the globe. Forecasting is not an exact science and it relies heavily on past and current knowledge. Improvements in the nutritional sciences (both human and animal) include a better understanding of agents that cause deterioration of human health, improving the quality of animal products, applying effective fetal programming, developing new feeds and feeding strategies, and revisiting longstanding technologies. Improvements in the understanding of the rumen microbiome will enable scientists to increase the fermentation efficiency and, hopefully, select microbial species of greater interest. Improvements in... |

This paper develops a heterogeneous-agent model to assess the impacts of removing lucerne growing subsidies, increasing livestock numbers and including district-level equilibrium conditions on optimal farm plans in the Qingyang district of Gansu Province, China. The model is a five-year dynamic linear program that solves across 96 farm households whilst incorporating district-level constraints. The approach used allows us to observe seasonal variations in incomes, infer the distribution of a policy shock among households and highlight trade patterns at the district level. The results suggest that without lucerne growing subsidies the total area of lucerne grown by all modelled households falls by 18%. Increasing livestock numbers by 25% reduces net... |

Na iLPF os sistemas agrossilvipastoris, ao associar o componente árboreo às pastagens e às lavouras, adquirem importância, principalmente em regiões agropastoris com grande fragmentação de remanescentes florestais naturais e/ou com pastagens degradadas. A inclusão do componente árboreo ao da lavoura e da pastagem representa um avanço inovador da Integração Lavoura-Pecuária (iLP), evoluindo para o conceito de integração-Lavoura-Pecuária-Floresta (iLPF), estratégia de produção sustentável que integra atividades agrícolas, pecuárias e florestais, realizadas na mesma área, num cultivo consorciado, em sucessão ou rotação, buscando efeitos sinérgicos entre os componentes do agroecossistema, em busca da adequação ambiental, da valorização do homem e da... |

Seasonality of Pantanal flooding, depending on the intensity and duration, can drastically reduce the food supply and even the death of livestock by starvation or drowning. In this context, the question that is asked each year is: what will be the magnitude of the rising of rivers and floods and when will this occur, so that cattle removal is necessary? |

Outlines economic threshold models developed by various authors as an aid to decision-making about pest management. Particular attention is given to the models proposed by Stern et al. (1959) and by Headley (1972) and the major differences in their concepts of the economic threshold. Limitations and scope for applying these models is discussed as well as differences in the extent of their applications are reviewed. After considering general issues in this respect, particular matters are given attention such as difficulties raised by complexities in the nature of yield loss function due to uncertainty in pest densities, the presence of multiple-pests, and the occurrence of pesticide resistance. An extension is provided for multiple species pest models to... |
