Abstract:

The rapid expansion of China’s dairy herd in recent years, with a primary objective of increasing milk production, has given rise to speculation on the potential beef production from this Chinese black and white herd. This study examines whether or not economic incentives exist for dairy and beef producers in China to adopt dairy—beef production and the impact of dairy-beef production on Chinese beef supply, demand and international trade.

Abstract:

The quality of early milk produced by dams is affected by various factors (i.e. breed, age, parity, environment, nutrition, management). The impact of these factors on the quality of milk then have subsequent effects on calf health and development. Producers are responsible for following guidelines in order to ensure that they feed calves optimal quality milk in order to produce a healthy animal. They can also regulate factors such as environment and nutrition of the dam in order to produce better quality early milk. However, even after maximizing these factors there is still high mortality ra

Abstract:

Livestock provide as much as one-third of all protein consumed by humans, but have a disproportionate and growing environmental impact. Livestock production occupies 50-75% of agricultural land, contributes 15% of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, and drives agricultural expansion in the tropics through the global trade in animal feed. This thesis therefore evaluates two strategies for shrinking the environmental impact of the livestock sector. First, I evaluate the potential for food losses (i.e. foods which were intended for human consumption, but which ultimately are not directly eate

Abstract:

The use of feed additives (e.g. yeasts products) for reduction of ruminants’ methane (CH4) production has drawn the attention of cattle nutritionists and environmentalists. Although there are many relevant studies on this topic, but the obtained results for dairy and beef cattle are contradictory. Therefore, the objective of the present study is to examine the effect of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) on reduction of CH4 production in dairy and beef cattle using meta-analytic methods.

Abstract:

The objective of the study was to evaluate cow reproductive performance in the sweetveld and sourveld communal grazing areas of the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa. In the first experiment, farmer perceptions were obtained using participatory rural appraisals. Farmers ranked lack of fences, tick-borne diseases, poor animal condition during winter and poor breeding practices, respectively as major constraints limiting cattle production in the Eastern Cape. Cattle, sheep and goats, in that order, were ranked as the most important livestock species and were mainly kept for meat, cash and cere

Abstract:

There is little evidence that the productivity of New Zealand beef herds has improved over time. Data from the NZ Meat and Wool Board’s Economic Service (2006) suggest that the average national calving percentage has declined over the last two decades. During the same period cattle carcass weights have increased but so too has the average cow live-weight which has resulted in increased maintenance costs of the cow herds. It is unclear whether production efficiency in the industry has improved or declined over time. The aim of this research was to develop means of improving productivity in

Abstract:

Variation in animal personality, in other words, behavioural responses consistent within individuals over time and/or across contexts, is predicted to be related to life-history traits, such as growth rate and investment in reproduction. How this translates into relationships between personality and milk production in dairy cows is however scarcely investigated and previous studies are showing contradicting results. To further investigate this relationship, individual consistencies in behaviour were related to milk production in two breeds of dairy cows (Swedish red and white cattle, SRB, and

Livestock systems have an important role in the food supply chain, contributing to nearly 40 percent of the global value of agricultural output.

The output derived from the different livestock systems and its consequences on anthropic and natural systems depend on how all these elements
