Integrated Cattle Nutrition. |
| |
/ 9781680955378/ Price:US$ 64.95
|
| |
|
|
The proper nutrition of cattle is a key component of a successful production system. Feed usually accounts for the single largest input cost associated with cattle. Feeding diets with lowered protein content reduces nitrogen input, improves nitrogen utilization e ciency, and reduces nitrogen losses from manure. Reducing dietary protein also bene ts the producer by reducing feed cost and improving overall farm pro tability. These interventions, however, have to be balanced with the risk of loss in milk production. If the true animal requirements for metabolizable protein are not met, long-term production cannot be sustained. Certain nutrients are required by beef cattle in the daily ration, whereas others can be stored in the body. When body stores of a nutrient are high, e.g., vitamin A, dietary supplementation is unnecessary until such stores are depleted. However, it may be di cult to determine when body stores have been depleted until advanced signs of de ciency start to appear. Hence, a knowledge of the basic digestive system of cattle and the role of various nutrients is important. Combined with accurate feed analysis, it allows the formulation of balanced rations which will meet production goals in an economic manner. It also enhances the management of the feeding program by providing the background information necessary to prevent or resolve problem situations. |

Family poultry is de ned as small-scale poultry keeping by households using family labor and, wherever possible, locally available feed resources. The poultry may range freely in the household compound and nd much of their own food, getting supplementary amounts from the householder. For smallholder farmers, family poultry represents one of the few opportunities for saving, investment and security against risk. Poultry keeping uses family labour, and women (who often own as well as look after the family ock) are major bene ciaries.
Women often have an important role in the development of family poultry production. Poultry management usually refers to the husbandry practices or production techniques that help to maximize the e ciency of production. Sound management practices are very essential to optimize production. Scienti c poultry management aims at maximizing returns with minimum investment. |

Getting dairy cattle rebred in a timely fashion is critical for dairy farm pro tability. To accomplish this objective,information is essential for arti cial insemination in dairy cattle, improving the detection of heat cycles, methods of pregnancy diagnosis in dairy cattle, and dairy cow reproductive management. The ability of a cow to successfully mate, conceive, give birth to and raise a healthy calf each year is essential to economical beef production. A good understanding of anatomy and physiology of both the male and female is helpful in successfully managing reproduction. Causes for failures in reproduction must be identi ed and overcome. These techniques in beef production provide many options to help modern beef producers accomplish their management goals. |

Reproduction in Domestic Animals. |

|
| |
|
|
Animal species that are under human control are considered Domesticated. Reproduction is necessary for the survival of any species. The role of reproduction is to provide for the continued existence of a species; it is the process by which living organisms duplicate themselves. Animals compete with other individuals in the environment to maintain themselves for a period of time su cient to enable them to produce tissue nonessential to their own survival, but indispensable to the maintenance of the species. The additional tissue, reproductive tissue, usually becomes separated from the individual to form a new, independent organism. Through this improved understanding, the development of reproductive technologies like arti cial insemination, embryo transfer and sexing semen became possible. By studying developmental biology, a sub- eld of reproductive biology, we now better understand crucial developmental periods during gestation and can make appropriate adjustments in how we manage and feed animals. |

Animal husbandry practices have varied widely across cultures and time periods. These practices increase yield of the various commercial outputs, but have led to increased concerns about animal welfare and environmental impact. Half a century ago, family farms were prevalent. Animals grazed on pasture, breathing fresh air, and feeling sunshine on their backs. During inclement weather, they were sheltered in straw-bedded barns. In contrast, the rearing of farm animals today is dominated by industrialized facilities that maximize pro ts by treating animals not as sentient creatures, but as production units. Raised by the thousands at a single site, animals are con ned in such tight quarters that they can scarcely move, let alone behave normally. Such production creates what appear to be "cheap" meat, eggs, and dairy products. But what at the cash register seems inexpensive in fact costs dearly to farm animals, the environment, rural and traditional farming, human health, and food quality and safety. A good understanding of anatomy and physiology of both the male and female is helpful in successfully managing reproduction. The techniques in animal production provide many options to help modern farmers accomplish their management goals. |

Poultry science is the study of all types of birds raised for food and feathers, including chickens, turkeys, geese and ducks. Poultry are domesticated birds kept by humans for the eggs they produce, their meat, their feathers, or sometimes as pets. Poultry, including meat and eggs, is major agricultural commodity in the world. At some point, almost everyone has eaten chicken, turkey, eggs, or other poultry products. Poultry is also involved in basic biological research on genetics biochemistry and diseases. Poultry business has numerous benefits. People generally establish poultry farm for the purpose of producing eggs, meat and generating high revenue from these products. Billions of chickens are being raised throughout the world as a good source of food from their eggs and meat. The most common and widely raised poultry birds are chicken. About ve thousands million chickens are being raised every year as a source of food (both meat and eggs of chicken). The chickens which are raised for eggs are called layer chicken, and the chickens which are raised for their meat production are called broiler chickens. |

Livestock are domesticated animals raised in an agricultural setting to produce commodities such as food, ber, and labor. The term is often used to refer solely to those raised for food, and sometimes only farmed ruminants, such as cattle and goats. Animal husbandry practices have varied widely across cultures and time periods. Originally, livestock were not con ned by fences or enclosures, but these practices have largely shifted to intensive animal farming, sometimes referred to as factory farming. These practices increase yield of the various commercial outputs, but have led to increased concerns about animal welfare and environmental impact.
Livestock production continues to play a major economic and cultural role in numerous rural communities.

Animal husbandry, the practice of raising animals for food, requires not only the ability to breed, feed, and care for livestock but also an underlying scientific knowledge that informs this practice. The present level of advancement of science disciplines like genomics, animal neuroscience, and animal behavioral science is affecting, sometimes upending, previous practices and understanding. At the same time, evolving climate conditions challenge domestic animal production with more extreme atmospheric events, which in turn question previous proven methods. More specifically, animals in the tropics and beyond face danger from serious flooding, extreme heat waves that compromise immune systems, new or mutant infectious pathogens, and pests. Evolution may hold the key for adaptation in the long term, but farmers had better find new ways to drive breeding and maintain animal welfare for continued success. |

Poultry refers to tamed birds that people keep for their eggs, flesh with adhering bones, or feathers. Various kinds of poultry include chicken, turkey, goose, duck, quail, pheasant, pigeon, fowl, ostrich, emu, and rhea. Poultry has a great impact on monetary, nutritional, social and cultural elements in the developing countries. It is particularly significant for the sustenance of necessitous countryside families, who many times possess and deal with chickens and other domesticated birds. In addition to the economic source, poultry gives pleasure to several people, thus making it a big and favorable recreation. Alas, poultry has some limitations. It may become unwell, thereby impeding poultry production. Poultry gets affected by four main types of diseases: metabolic and nutritional diseases, infectious diseases, parasitic diseases, and behavioral diseases. This book details diseases altering poultry, and some factors contributing to the disease. |
