Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cattle play a fundamental role in animal agriculture throughout the world. They not only provide us with a vital food source, but they also provide us with fertilizer and fuel. Keeping reproduction levels at an optimum level is therefore essential, but this is often a complicated process, especially with modern, high yielding cows. Written in a practical and user-friendly style, this book aims to help the reader understand cattle reproduction by explaining the underlying physiology of the reproductive process and the role and importance of pharmacology and technology, and showing how management techniques can improve reproductive efficiency. This edition includes: Recent research findings on the physiology of the oestrous cycle and its control; New techniques for monitoring and manipulating reproduction, including pregnancy diagnosis and embryo transfer; Advice on identifying common infertility problems and how to prevent and treat them. Reproduction Cattle 3e is essential reading for veterinary and agricultural students, as well as veterinarians and farmers involved in cattle reproduction.

Book excerpt: "Running a Small Beef Herd provides an introduction to beef production for those about to enter the industry and is an ongoing reference for anyone managing a small herd of beef cattle on their property. Fundamental considerations such as the economics of beef production and the selection of a suitable beef enterprise to match a particular property and level of experience are covered. It considers various systems suitable for a small beef operation: steer fattening, cow and calf systems, foster calves and multiple suckling, and lot feeding. It offers practical advice on buying cattle, marketing methods for particular types of cattle and specifications for markets such as domestic supermarket, butcher shops and hotels, Japan, Korea and US manufacturing. Cattle handling and carrying out necessary husbandry practices such as castration and vaccination, herd health, reproductive management, nutrition, carrying capacity, supplementary feeding through normal feed shortages or drought are also explored. Facilities such as fences, yards and water supply, which have a large impact on ease of management, are discussed in detail. Various breeds of cattle including the suitability of newer breeds such as lowlines are discussed and comparative ratings of economic traits are given. The book includes a calendar of operations to assist with timing and coordination of all the activities associated with breeding and raising cattle in southern Australia. This new edition completely updates the financial and marketing information and expands on the systems of beef production, breeds, breed management, stock handling, supplementary feeding and drought management. It updates and expands on the NLIS (ear tagging) requirements, and includes a chapter on the importance of soil health and fertility."--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book Simulation Of Beef Cattle Production Systems And Its Use In Economic Analysis written by Thomas H Spreen and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic analysis of beef cattle production has been limited by the inability to fully describe the underlying production process. Except for confined feeding of cattle, beef cattle production is the process of growing cattle who consume forages. The animal and the forage possess attributes of both factors and products of production. The production of forage constitutes one production process, animal growth is another production process, and reproduction by female animals is a third production process. Cattle production involves all three processes in such a manner that each influences the outcome of the other. Each process is itself complex and analysis is further complicated when all three are considered simultaneously.
