Welcome to this week's newsletter
We have 4 new features this week:
Impact of Biofuels on Meat Production
The biofuels industry is a policy driven industry that is influenced by the need to reduce the use of energy resources, agricultural support and environmental issues, writes Chris Harris Senior Editor, TheCattleSite.
Understanding the Loss of Cattle Fertility and Reversing the Trend
Recent studies have revealed that there is an overall decrease in the fertility of cows in Europe. In order to combat this pattern producers can make changes to their feeding schedules which can have a dramatic impact on cyclicity and fertility in dairy and beef cows, writes Adam Anson, reporting for TheCattleSite.
Using Liquid Feed Supplements for Beef Production
Liquid feed supplements, formulated to be used by grazing cattle, are now readily available throughout New South Wales, writes Ian Blackwood, Livestock Officer (Beef Products), Extensive Industries Development.
