Abstract:
Depending on the materials used to produce a compost, it will contain lower or higher levels of nutrients and metals. If composts have been appropriately matured, nutrients are in plant-available forms for crop production, and the compost pH will be near neutral. After 25 years of research and development of regulations and advice for biosolids and compost utilization, pretreatment of industrial wastes allows biosolids composts, and composts prepared from biosolids mixed with municipal solid wastes or yard debris to contain levels of microelements needed for plant nutrition but not high levels

Sales of organic products reached $8 billion in the U.S. in 2000, continuing the nearly decade-long trend of 20% annual growth. In Iowa alone, organic production for all crops was 5265 ha (13,000 acres) in 1995 but 60,750 ha (150,000 acres) in 1999. Despite the growth in organic agriculture, our knowledge of organic farming systems remains limited. We have adopted a systems theory approach in our current research program at Iowa State University (ISU) to help address this gap in understanding. Systems theory holds that biological systems, such as agroecosystems, consist of integrated units of

Abstract:
AbstractCompost is a widely accepted organic fertiliser throughout the world. It is being produced using a wide variety of source materials at household to commercial scale. With the increased population and changes in food consumption pattern tending towards a vegetable- and meat-rich diet, the amount of organic waste generated in urban and peri-urban settings has increased. Many governments promote composting as a process that helps them to reduce the volume of organic waste and recycle nutrients back to croplands. Some examples of organic waste accumulated in large scale include household waste from urban and peri-urban settings, sewage, animal farm waste, agricultural waste from large-scale markets, food debris, and kitchen waste from hotels. The composition of compost varies in a wide range depending on the nature of materials used to produce it. The safety concerns related to compost also vary along the same line. The quality of compost has become a subjective term that means different aspects to different bodies due to a lack of commonly agreed standards to regulate the composting process and the final product itself. Recent research findings indicate that compost can serve as a carrier of potentially toxic trace elements, organic pollutants, and determinants of antimicrobial resistance to the environment and along the food chain. Producing good-quality compost safe to human health and the environment at large has become a challenge that should be addressed at various levels: from production to policymaking. This chapter discusses some of the major challenges faced in Sri Lanka with compost making. To prepare the background for this discussion, information on the policies and current practices of nutrient management in Sri Lanka is also presented. The context may be applicable to many other developing countries in the tropics.

Abstract:
AbstractThe chapter summarizes the new results of the Bàsura Revisited Interdisciplinary Research Project. The integrated interpretation of recent archaeological data and palaeosurface laser scans, along with geoarchaeological, sedimentological, geochemical and archaeobotanical analyses, geometric morphometrics and digital photogrammetry, enabled us to reconstruct some activities that an Upper Palaeolithic human group led inside a deep cave in northern Italy within a single exploration event about 14 ka calBP. A complex and diverse track records of humans and other animals shed light on individual- and group-level behaviour, social relationship and mode of exploration of the uneven terrain. Five individuals, composed of two adults, an adolescent and two children, entered the cave barefoot lightening the way with a bunch of wooden sticks (Pinus t. sylvestris/mugo bundles). While proceeding, humans were forced to move on all fours, and the traces they left represent the first report of crawling locomotion in the global human ichnological record. Anatomical details recognizable in the crawling traces show that no clothing was present between limbs and the trampled sediments. Our study demonstrates that very young children (the youngest about 3 years old) were active members of the human groups, even in apparently dangerous and social activities, shedding light on behavioural habits of Upper Palaeolithic populations.

Abstract:
In this chapter, the authors present a mathematical model to calculate the exact quantities of animals that must compose a herd given the water, food, and land conditions available for their breeding. In the same model, the optimal calculation of vegetables that can be cultivated in the available land spaces is incorporated considering the same restrictions of water, nutrients, and area available for planting. Both models focus primarily from a deterministic perspective. Subsequently, the randomness of the same is uncovered through the uncertainty in the availability of water. Therefore, the first part of the proposal is made through a simple model of linear mathematical programming. The stochastic model is constructed from a two-phase mathematical programming model. The novelty of the proposal and its contribution consists of illustrating, step by step, the construction and solution of the scenarios of the stochastic model for a problem related to agriculture and animal husbandry.

Abstract:
Feathers are hard waste products, mainly composed of hard β-keratin, and are produced in large quantities in commercial poultry processing plants. Therefore, their industrial utilization is important economically as well as environmentally. Feathers degradation through keratinolytic microorganisms has been considered as an important method for efficient bioconversion, nutritional enhancement and eco-friendliness. The use of crude keratinase significantly increased the amino acid digestibility of raw feathers and commercial feather meal. This enzyme increased the digestibility of commercial feather meal and could replace as much as 7% of the dietary protein for growing chicks. However, feathers are currently utilized on a limited basis as a dietary protein supplement for animal feed because feather meal production is an expensive process, requiring significant amounts of energy. This review paper explains the nutritive value of feathers which makes suitable and inexpensive animal and poultry feed.

Abstract:
Biogeographers study the distributions of organisms and the systems those species inhabit. Biogeography can be viewed both as a form of geographical enquiry applied to plants and animals, and also as a biological science concerned with geography. Thus, biogeography is interdisciplinary, like other “composite” sciences such as geomorphology (Bauer 1996; Osterkamp and Hupp 1996). Veblen (1989) provided an overview of biogeography in the late 1980s. He commented on the nature of biogeography as practiced in academic geography programs, finding most similarity in approach and subject matter with ecologists and ecology. Three broad research orientations can be identified (K. R. Young 1995): ecological, evolutionary, and applied. Each orientation includes both theoretical frameworks and empirical foundations. Ecological approaches relate plant and animal distributions to current biological and physical processes, including interactions among species, precipitation and temperature regimes, and soil nutrient dynamics. Evolutionary approaches accommodate genetic and population changes in species over long time-periods, in addition to historical processes as affected by Earth history, plate tectonics, and climate change; these approaches have been labeled as “classical biogeography” (Veblen 1989). Complete biogeographical explanations often require detailed information on both ecological conditions and historical changes over centuries or millennia or even millions of years. Biogeographical approaches also are applied to the evaluation of important societal issues, for example through the study of nature reserves. Of practical and theoretical concern are situations where species or their distributions and abundances are modified by human influences. This is the part of biogeography closest to geography’s mainstream research interests in human–nature interrelations, and is called “cultural biogeography.” Some people characterize geography as the study of the Earth as modified by humans; in this case, biological geography (biogeography) would include the study of how species and living land cover have been altered by people. Species distributions can change over short and long time-scales (Hengeveld 1990; Dingle 1996). Biogeographers who study the shifting spatial distribution patterns of specific species of plants or animals often focus their research on biophysical factors that determine the range limits of the species and how those factors change through time. These controls include the effects of other organisms, the physical conditions of the environment, and disturbance.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on the llanos, Venezuela’s natural floodplain, where the author decided to start his study of anacondas. The llanos is a flatland that comprises about a third of both Venezuela and Colombia. It is composed of an extensive system of natural, seasonally flooded grasslands. The llanos is located to the north and west of the Orinoco River and sits on the northern borders of the Amazon basin. Because of this, most of the wildlife of the Amazon can be found in the llanos, where it is easier to observe animals in the open vegetation of the savanna. The extreme seasonality of the llanos made all the difference in the success of the author’s anaconda research. Anacondas, being aquatic, concentrate in the few water bodies that hold water during the dry season. During this time, the chance of finding anacondas was much higher. The chapter then explores the physical build of snakes. Most snakes have adaptations of the skull and jaws involving mobile hinges, and a whole arrangement of joints and muscles evolved for swallowing large prey. The extra mobility of the snake’s jaws is obtained by giving up solid skull sutures that the ancestral lizards had, rendering the snake’s head more vulnerable to damage.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter aims at establishing engineering material properties of bovine hard tissue cut out of long bone. The study and design of implants, medical devices, and their bone material necessitate the knowledge of mechanical properties of bone to be evaluated. Braces or steel plates are used as fixation devices in animals who are treated for the fracture to bone or cracked bone. Braces or steel plates are fixed to the bone by rods and screws. For checking the stability of these inserted metallic parts, they have to be compatible with bone. The metal and bone form composite action for the load transfer mechanism. To ensure proper biomechanics and design of these inserts and accessories, we need to know the elastic properties of bone. This chapter establishes the modulus of elasticity, poisons ratio of Bovine femur bone. The experimental study establishes the orthotropic behavior of Bovidae femur bone. This experimental research provides comprehensive mechanical properties of Bovidae femur bone, through series of mechanical tests. By performing compression tests on a bone specimen, stress, strain, elastic modulus, poison’s ratio, and yielding point of bone are established. The bovine long bone exhibits orthotropic or transversely isotropic nature of femur bone as expected. The data presented here is for samples derived from goat and water buffalo. The solid mechanics approach using stiffness matrix is adopted to establish elastic constants. The data of elastic constants, compliance, and stiffness coefficients obtained can be used for finite element analysis to simulate stability of composite, femur bone, and metallic fixation. The values of compression strength, Young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio, and shear modulus are higher for water buffalo male than that of female showing gender difference. This may be attributed to lower bone density in females due to hormone secretion.
