Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMethods for Growing Complete Feed for Livestock on the Forage Lands of West Kazakhstan in the Framework of Sustainable ManagementBeybit Nasiyev, Peizhi Yang, Azhar Latenova et al.Sustainable management of forage lands is critical for livestock productivity in the arid and semi-arid regions of West Kazakhstan, where pasture degradation and declining forage quality pose increasing challenges to agricultural sustainability. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different grazing methods on the vegetation condition, productivity, and nutritional quality of pastures in West Kazakhstan. Pasture vegetation was assessed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2026 · 1,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment of a Hybrid Power Module for Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks: Towards a Livestock Tracking and Identification SystemMolaletsa Namoshe, Oduetse Matsebe, Obakeng MaphaneSmart technology and Internet of Things (IoT) applications have gained popularity in the development of agricultural systems with Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) increasingly becoming the building blocks for IoT applications. However, WSNs have a limited power supply. As a result, these systems have a short lifespan, limited memory and low computing power. This paper describes the development of a hybrid … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 23 Oct 2017 · 7,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA BIOPHYSIOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF SETTLED LIVESTOCK AND POULTRY HOUSING DUSTSCarresse Gerald, Christi McPherson, Tha’Mes McDaniel et al.The levels and composition of agricultural dusts are influenced by animal species, production strategy, housing type and ventilation efficiency. Agricultural dust within animal houses is complex and consists of feed particles, microbes and their products, dander, fecal matter, gases, metals and other organic and inorganic components. Livestock and poultry production facilities may be categorized as confinement, semi-confinement or pasture-based. Characterization … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 16 Jan 2014 · 8,080 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGreenhouse Gas Emissions: Quantifying Methane Emissions from LivestockRafiu O. Yusuf, Zainura Z. Noor, Ahmad H. Abba et al.Problem statement: The rearing of animals for domestic consumption and export invariably lead to the production of methane as a product of digestion. This study investigated the emission of methane from Malaysian livestock between 1980 and 2008. Approach: Seven categories of animals identified were camel, buffalo, sheep, goats, horse, pigs and poultry. The estimation of methane was based on the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2012 · 9,538 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessEvery word in the titleRumen Microbiota Mysteries: Nutrition, Function, and its Impact on Livestock ProductivityHamdi Mayulu, Marry ChristiyantoRuminants are important herbivores in the global food system, serving as primary producers of meat and milk. The productivity of these animals is influenced by the functionality of their digestive organs, namely rumen. The digestion, metabolism and nutrients absorption in the rumen epithelium enhance the host defende mechanisms mechanisms, promoting health and productivity in ruminants. Therefore, this review aimed to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 4 Aug 2025 · 4,069 accessesView PDFCite
