Gerber, Benjamin Henderson and Harinder P.S. Makkar.ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:2621492024-05-15T22:58:58Z2024-05-15T22:58:58Zby Gerber, Pierre J.<br/>Call Number 363.738746 23<br/>Publication Date 2013<br/>Summary "Animal agriculture substantially contributes to the world economy by providing food, jobs, and financial security for billions of people. With increasing concerns over global climate change and pollution, efforts are underway to reduce the overall environmental impact of animal production. This document analyzes emission of non-carbon dioxide greenhouse gases, an important segment of the environmental footprint of animal production. It has been developed by a team that included experts in animal/ruminant nutrition, manure and soil management, animal and whole-farm modeling, and animal reproduction. Over 900 publications focusing on nutritional and manure management mitigation strategies for methane (enteric or from manure) and nitrous oxide emissions were reviewed and analyzed, and a synthesis of feed-, animal managementand manure management-based mitigation approaches and interactions amongst them has been presented. This document will help researchers, animal industry consultants, policy-makers, animal producers, non-governmental organizations, and other groups with interest in maintaining a viable and environmentally-responsible animal production sector to make sound decisions on selection and adoption of effective and economically feasible greenhouse gas mitigation practices."--Publisher's description.<br/>Format: Electronic Resources<br/><a href="http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=e900xww&AN=682088">Click here to view</a><br/>Quality assurance for microbiology in feed analysis laboratories [electronic resource] / [author, Richard A. Cowie ; editor, Harinder P.S. Makkar].ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:2614942024-05-15T22:58:58Z2024-05-15T22:58:58Zby Cowie, Richard A.<br/>Call Number 636.0855 23<br/>Publication Date 2013<br/>Summary "Animal feeding influences every sector of the livestock industry. High quality animal feed with the correct nutritional content and free from harmful contaminants, such as microbiological agents or their toxins, ensures that animals will be in the best possible condition, content and healthy. As a result animals will produce increased yields of quality products (meat, milk, eggs or wool) resulting in improved health and wellbeing of the human population. This publication provides comprehensive guidance on the requirements of a microbiology laboratory performing animal feed analysis and includes examples of standard operating procedures, prepared by experts from around the world. These procedures will assist laboratories in attaining the competence required, will enhance the quality of data reported and ensure the safety of laboratory workers. The procedures contained in this publication are compliant with ISO/IEC 17025:2005 (General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories) and take into account ISO 14001:2004 (Environmental management systems) and BS OHSAS 18001:2007 (Occupational health and safety management systems) and will assist laboratories to gain accreditation or certification. This publication will be useful for laboratory analysts, laboratory managers, students and teachers and will enable workers in the livestock industry to appreciate the importance of proven reliable data and quality assurance. Implementing the procedures will strengthen the research and education capabilities of students and promote a better trading environment between developing and developed economies. This will have long-term benefits and promote investment in feed industries and R & D."--Publisher's description.<br/>Format: Electronic Resources<br/><a href="http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=e900xww&AN=682087">Click here to view</a><br/>
