Download or read book Managing High Grade Dairy Cows in the Tropics written by John Moran and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dairy consumption in Asia has more than doubled over the last 25 years, and has led to more than 50% of the world’s total dairy imports now entering Asian markets. Consequently, Asian countries are seeking to improve their self-sufficiency in dairy produce by developing their local milk industries. Asian livestock importers are looking for increasing numbers of high grade dairy stock from established dairy industries in countries such as Australia and New Zealand. Unfortunately, a major problem encountered throughout Asia has been the poor performance of these exotic high grade dairy heifers when exported from their country of origin to a new, more stressful environment. This has been due to a failure to prepare for their introduction. Exotic dairy cows, particularly those from farms with high levels of herd performance, have high management requirements. If subjected to local and traditional small holder dairy farm practices, they are unlikely to produce acceptable yields of milk or may not even get back into calf. Poor management practices can lead to low growth rates, delayed breeding, stock diseases and even deaths among imported stock both before and after first calving. Managing High Grade Dairy Cows in the Tropics addresses the entire range of management practices found on tropical small holder dairy farms, highlighting those which are likely to adversely impact on heifer and cow performance, hence farm profitability. It is a companion volume to three other manuals written by John Moran: Rearing Young Stock on Tropical Dairy Farms in Asia, Tropical Dairy Farming and Business Management for Tropical Dairy Farmers.

Download or read book The Dairy Farm written by Archibald Leitch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dairy Farm: Dairy Cattle Methods, and Dairy Farm Management With this great advantage in economy of pro duction, it is quite easy to discern why the dairy cow tends to supplant the meat-bearing animals in regions where land is high priced and popula tion dense. She gives the greatest financial re turns from the feeds grown on the farm, and there fore enables the owner to get the necessary added returns from his high-priced land. Still easier is it to see why the dairy cow has supplanted the meat-bearing animals where land has become im poverished. Here she enables the farmer to get the greatest financial returns from what little his land does produce and at the same time returns to the soil practically all the plant food taken out by the feed she eats. One of the favorable economic features of the dairy business is the regularity and dependability of the returns. This appeals particularlv to the small farmer of limited means to whom security of returns is of more moment than the volume of profits. Moreover a development of dairying on a small farm afl'ords an opportunity of increasing the volume of business on a limited area. With the well recognized business results of larger profit; from larger business on the same plant. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

These issues include: nutrition; health care; reproduction; milk production; replacement rearing; and farm economics.
