Download or read book Impact of Recombinant Bovine Somatotropin on Dairy Farm Cost of Production written by Loren Tauer and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York dairy farm data over the years 1994-2002 were used to estimate the impact of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST) use on the cost of producing a hundredweight of milk. Both fixed and random effects models were estimated. Self-selection bias in the use of rbST was not found to exist. Results imply that the use of rbST on these dairy farms reduces the net cost of producing a hundredweight of milk somewhere between $0.23 and $0.52. For 20,000 pound average per-cow production, this would be a net cost reduction of $46-104 per cow.

Download or read book The Potential Effect Of Two New Biotechnologies On The World Dairy Industry written by Lovell S Jarvis and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biotechnology is expected, by many observers, to have a significant impact on the world dairy industry over the next decade. In this timely volume, Lovell Jarvis analyzes the potential effect of two biotechnologies—multiple ovulation and embryo transfers (MOET) and recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST—on the dairy industry around the world. According to Jarvis's research, the effects of these two technologies will vary greatly between the developed and developing nations. He predicts that the technologies will be most profitable for the developed nations, where their use will increase milk production and strengthen their positions in dairy export markets. Developing country dairy sectors will probably lose from the use of these two biotechnologies, as their own international trade position will be weakened, though their own consumers should benefit. Jarvis concludes his study with a look at alternative approaches that might improve the competitive position of developing countries in the dairy sector.
