Dr. Farahani prefers to use the term “ecofriendly” to “green” to describe his practice. While the definition of “green” is open to interpretation, he defines “eco-friendly” dentistry as an approach to dentistry that implements sustainable practices by keeping resource consumption in line with nature’s economy, by safeguarding the external environment through the elimination or reduction of out...

This experiment was carried out on 123 Farahani ewes from a herd in Delijan city in Markazi province of Iran to determine the best short-term method for oestrus synchronization. Ewes were divided into five experimental groups randomly: group 1) use of controlled intervaginal drug release devices (CIDR) for 7 days with intramuscular (IM) injection of PGF2α on zero day and IM injection of 500 IU ...

to estimate the grazing capacity in each region it is necessary to determine animal requirement based on forage quality and animal unit weight of dominant sheep breed. in present study animal unit weight of farahani sheep breed was investigated. two herds were selected. thirty animals including 15 three and four years' old ewes, 5 nine months old lambs, 5 six months old lambs, 5 three and four ...

Abstract Farm diversification is mainly driven by risk mitigation effects and economic gains related to complementarities between production activities. By combining these two aspects, we investigate economies in a sample of French mixed sheep farming systems rank using stochastic dominance criteria. Partially diversified (Sheep-Grass, Sheep-Crop, Sheep-Landless) fully (Sheep-Grass-Crop-Landles...

In this work, the fatigue behaviour of 316 stainless steel is studied with different critical plane models. Seven cylindrical samples were used for study, being subjected to complex loading paths, generating combined stresses along axial and transversal sample directions, these being: individual stress, hoop alternating a proportional combination non-proportional L-shaped square-shaped stress. ...

Factors affecting ewe prolificacy (number of lambs born per ewe lambing) were evaluated using records on 9705 Targhee, 12,721 Suffolk, and 7231 Polypay lambings from flocks participating in the US National Sheep Improvement Program. Factors considered were ewe age and season of lambing. Prolificacy was affected by age of the ewe (P<0.001) and was highest for ewes lambing between 4 and either 7 ...
