like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...

Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus Control and Eradication

BVDV is estimated to cost an average dairy between $20 and $160 per adult cow per year. These losses include medication and labor to treat acute infections, milk production losses in lactating cows, infertility due to decreased conception and early embryonic death, abortions, loss of weak, abnormal, or persistently infected calves. Large scale herd outbreaks such as occurred in the early 1990s ...

A method of accelerated eradication of bovine brucellosis in the Czech Republic.

A method of accelerated eradication of bovine brucellosis was developed and applied in the Czech Republic, where livestock was reared primarily in large-scale units. Before this method was adopted, annual economic losses were about US dollars 20 million and thousands of people were estimated to suffer from brucellosis (e.g. 32.4% of tested veterinarians were positive). Initial mass serological ...

Economic Impacts, Control and Eradication of Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus

Infections with Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus (BVD) are endemic in cattle populations worldwide and result in major economic losses; hence, many countries have begun BVD eradication programs. The authors estimated the losses caused by BVD, and the estimated annual losses in 2012 amounted to 4.5 million EUR in Hungary. In a dairy cattle farm with 1000 cows the acute clinical BVD could cause more ...
