The aim of this literature review was to make a comparison between the feeding requirements of Swedish reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) and meat producing cattle (Bos taurus) within farming. Reindeer are an intermediate feeding type; they have the ability to adapt to short …
Silage is today a common feed for different animals. A general way of storing silage is in bunker silos covered with polyethylene film. The covering and uncovering is labour intensive and it is often difficult to get the silo properly sealed. Because of these reasons many …
… for beef breeds is to produce animals with high capacity for growth and good feed efficiency. Longevity and sustainability are two important features to include in the breeding goal. If longevity is increased each cow can produce more calves and the number of female calves used …
… The damage is mainly caused by larvae, but adult beetles as well, as they feed on leaves, buds and flowers (Ernst, 2005). They can cause complete defoliation of the plant (Gold et al., 2001; LeSage and Elliott, 2003). Biological control seems possible following the discovery of …
… assessment of glucose and insulin dynamics. Horses with EMS should have a feed ration with a low content of non-structural carbohydrates. This results in a lower glucose intake and insulin release, which prevents further loss of insulin sensitivity.
… equipped with automatic cable driven scrapers on solid alleys, automatic feed wagon on rails, or uninsulated with manual manure handling and a tractor driven mobile mixer wagon on a drive-through feeding table. Building cost per cow or per kg milk was calculated using an average …
… sheep depend on several factors, for example, the composition of the diet, feed quality, the age of the animals, time of the day and maybe also breed and sex. A comprising literature review was made about which factors that affect the size of emissions. In addition, a …

… not mean lower labour requirement. Automation of mixing and distribution of feed save time. Getting cows from and back to pasture took between 0.0 (AMS-herd) to 0 1.7 min/cow*day (bad logistics). Three milkings per day does not mean that chasing time must be prolonged however …
… in their process to raise heifers. To let outside heifer growers house, feed and have the heifers pregnant before return, can save a lot of work. But also moneywise, when the care and individual programs makes them strong and increases the growth.The result is a faster breeding …
… of these variations were difficult to determine, probably due to problems with feed intake registrations. Prolonged daily rumination was positively correlated with higher milk yield and long daily rumination was also positively correlated with extended the inter-cycle periods.
… to study the effects of different harvesting systems and their effect on size, feed quality, wintering and economy for conditions in the northern part of Sweden. How different amount of litter in the spring affects the silage quality has also been studied.On the research station …

… betweenryegrass and fescue. Festulolium has high yields and good quality feed from ryegrassand good drying resistance and winterhardiness from fescue. Some festulolium varietiesremind most of ryegrass, while others remind most of tall fescue.We have done a literature review and …
… to anthropogenic activities such as phosphorus fertilizing, liming, import of feed, and atmospheric deposition from industrial emissions. Cadmium in the soil will be taken up by crops and is thereby transferred to humans via food. Carrot is one of the crops of concern, both …
… was that the separation module could be flexible enough to feed the metal pieces, screws, nuts and other items with large variations of size, appearance and material composition. The module should also be cost effective to manufacture. A separation module is a design which is …
