Mastitis in Dairy Production: Current Knowledge and Future Solutions
ISBN: 9789076998701 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Worldwide, mastitis is still one of the most important diseases in the dairy sector. Being a multifactorial disease, caused by multiple pathogens, control remains a difficult issue. Mastitis not only affects the health of milk-producing animals, having consequences for the profitability of dairy farms, it also affects the animal welfare. Moreover, mastitis negatively influences the milk quality having consequences for the dairy processing industry. In other words: mastitis affects a large part of the dairy production chain. Due to ongoing scientific effort, insight in mastitis in the context...

Crop Residues in Sustainable Mixed Crops/Livestock Farming Systems
ISBN: 9780851991771 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In many tropical areas, the main constraint to increased output of livestock products is the inability of producers to feed animals adequately throughout the year. Yet opportunities exist to enhance ruminant livestock feed supplies by using crop residues, such as cereal straw and legume haulms. Greater emphasis is therefore now being placed on vegetative production in plant breeding research. Crop residues also play an important role in conserving soil moisture, preventing erosion and providing products such as fuel or thatch for smallholders.
This book provides a... In many tropical areas, the main constraint to increased output of livestock products is the inability of producers to feed animals adequately through...

A Theory of Feeding and Growth of Animals
ISBN: 9783642683329 / Angielski / Miękka / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Geoffrey R. Dolby, PhD One of the principal characteristics of a scientific theory is that it be falsifiable. It must contain predictions about the real world which can be put to experimental test. Another very important characteristic of a good theory is that it should take full cognisance of the literature of the discipline in which it is embedded, and that it should be able to explain, at least as well as its competitors, those experimental results which workers in the discipline accept without dispute. Readers of John Parks' book will be left in no doubt that his theory of the feed ing...

Aldrovandi on Chickens: The Ornothology of Ulisse Aldrovandi (1600) Volume II Book XIV
ISBN: 9780806143743 / Angielski / Miękka / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Aldrovandi on Chickens The Renaissance man of science, unlike the physicist of today, conceived the value of his work to lie in its applicability to all phases of human activity. Aldrovandi on Chickens, the first English translation of any work by the Italian naturalist, Ulisse Aldrovandi, exemplifies the spirit and the letter of Renaissance science-the former, in the extensive classical references; the latter, through careful examination of every process concerned with the raising or use of chickens. Writing in 1598, Aldrovandi discusses as common knowledge such "twentieth-century" concepts...
