Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleBreeding Progress in Mugalzhar Horses: The Irtysh Type as a Model for Meat Production EfficiencyAkimbekov Amin, Uskenov Rashit, Nurgulsim Kaster et al.The Mugalzhar horse breed holds significant value for meat production in Kazakhstan. Developed through targeted selection, the new Irtysh stud type demonstrates outstanding adaptation and productivity, with stallions reaching an average live weight of 486.1 kg and mares 463.4 kg, an increase of up to 73 kg compared to the original group. The coefficient of variation for live weight and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 29 Nov 2025 · 2,613 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEfficiency and Sustainability of Alternative Protein Sources for Livestock Production in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review and Meta-AnalysisOlusegun Oyebade Ikusika, Bulo Luvuyo, Jaja Ishmeal FestusSub-Saharan Africa (SSA) faces growing challenges in sustainable livestock production due to high costs and limited availability of conventional protein sources such as soybean meal and fishmeal. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the nutritional efficiency and sustainability of locally available alternative protein sources for livestock feed in SSA. Following PRISMA guidelines, systematic searches were conducted across five databases (PubMed, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 19 Feb 2026 · 1,844 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Mixed Mineral-Enriched Essential Oils Supplementation on Milk Production and Feed Efficiency of Lactating Dairy CowsMohammad Sofi’ul Anam, Budi Prasetyo Widyobroto, Andriyani Astuti et al.This study aimed to determine milk production and efficiency of feed utilization of a mixed mineral-enriched essential oils supplementation of lactating dairy cows. Forty-eight Holstein-Friesian cows with a 3.45±0.58 body condition score and 187.08±21.53 days in milk were randomly allocated to two dietary treatments for 46 days. Treatments consisted of no supplementation (CON) or supplementation (AGB) of 0.5% of Agromix … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2022 · 6,468 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFactors that Influence Rice Production and Technical Efficiency in the Context of an Integrated Crop Management Field School ProgramMoh. Nur Rasyid, Budi Setiawan, Moch. Muslich Mustadjab, Nuhfil HananiThis research estimates the effect of production input on rice production and the effect of socio-economic factors on the technical efficiency of rice farms in the program of the Integrated Crop Management Field School (ICMFS). Data were collected from 78 rice farmer household heads from two randomly chosen villages in Indonesia. The results show that seed, fertilizer, pesticide and labor … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 14 Nov 2016 · 8,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDeterminants of Technical Efficiency of Sugarcane Production among Small Holder Farmers in Lao PDRPoungchompu SupapornThis study was to examine technical efficiency in sugarcane production in Savannakhet, Lao PDR. A stochastic frontier production function was applied with the data collected from 110 sample farmers in 2012. The results reveal that cultivated area (p<0.01), hired labor (p<0.10) and capital (p<0.10) are the major significantly positive factors in the output of sugarcane. Mean of technical efficiency was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 9 · 3 Oct 2015 · 6,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA STOCHASTIC FRONTIER APPROACH FOR MEASURING TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF SMALL-SCALE IMPROVED SALT PRODUCTION IN GUINEABoubacar Siddighi Balde, Hajime Kobayashi, Makoto Nohmi et al.Salt production is a major driving force behind the loss of mangrove in Guinea. As the traditional salt production causes increasing deforestation, the intensive exploitation of mangrove resources has now reached a critical threshold. Therefore, improved techniques using sunlight as the source of energy has been introduced as an alternative to the traditional salt production techniques which consumes a significant … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 14 May 2014 · 7,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleKEY FACTORS FOR IMPROVING TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF UPLAND RICE PRODUCTIONThanaporn Athipanyakul, Panusak Jitsaeng, Napa Pongkapan, Piansak PakdeeFood security problems are major issues in developing countries, especially under the conditions of restricted farm resources and environmental degradation. The re-allocation of existing farm resources in the upland in order to reach a production of maximum output under given technologies and the estimated value of the technical efficiency have been important information for this purpose. The objective of this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 24 Dec 2013 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Efficiency Measurement of Parallel Production Systems: A Non-radial Data Envelopment Analysis ModelAli Ashrafi, Azmi Bin Jaafar, Mohd Rizam Abu Bakar, Lai Soon LeeProblem statement: Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a non-parametric technique for measuring the relative efficiency of a set of production systems or Decision Making Units (DMU) that have multiple inputs and outputs. Sometimes, DMUs have a parallel structure, in which systems composed of parallel units work individually; the sum of their own inputs/outputs is the input/output of the system. For … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 9,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTechnical Efficiency of Chili ProductionA. S.M. Anwarul Huq, Fatimah Mohamed ArshadProblem statement: Scarcity of resources has led to production economists to think about the reallocation of existing resources to produce a prescribed level of output with the minimum cost without changing the production technology. But there is a lack of information about the efficient use of inputs in chili production. Except for a few descriptive studies, econometric analysis has yet … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,596 accessesView PDFCite
