Nutritional Strategies to Reduce Nutrient Waste in Livestock and Poultry Production.

Livestock and Climate Change: Mitigation Strategies to Reduce Methane Production

Nutritional and Feeding Strategies to Minimize Nutrient Losses in Livestock Manure

The livestock industry has undergone substantial changes in the past few decades. The poultry, swine, and dairy industries in particular have become increasingly concentrated. This has resulted in fewer, but larger, livestock operations throughout the country. As a result, there has been a growing concern about odor emissions from livestock operations and potential decreased water quality cause...

Evaluation of yeast isolated from industrial waste to remove selenium and the use of biomass in livestock and poultry food

Background: Bioavailability is a good alternative to conventional physical and chemical methods for removing toxic metals from groundwater and wastewater. Methods:  In this research, phenotypic and genotypic study was carried out on the use of isolated yeast from industrial effluents with the aim of eliminating Selenium biological and the production of biomass as a feed for livestock and poult...

Air Quality and Emissions from Livestock and Poultry Production/Waste Management Systems

The objective of this paper is to summarize the available literature on the concentrations and emissions of odor, ammonia, nitrous oxide, hydrogen sulfide, methane, non-methane volatile organic carbon, dust, and microbial and endotoxin aerosols from livestock and poultry buildings and manure management systems (storage and treatment units). Animal production operations are a source of numerous ...

A review of the capacity for nutritional strategies to address environmental challenges in poultry production.

Poultry production faces increasing environmental challenges, in the United States and globally. Although the environmental impact of poultry production has been decreased, regulatory and social pressures mandate that further improvements be made to decrease the pollution potential even more. Concerns over air and water quality to date have been related primarily to nutrient issues, specificall...
