Award-winning author Temple Grandin is famous for her groundbreaking approach to decoding animal behavior. Now she extends her expert guidance to small-scale farming operations. Grandin’s fascinating explanations of how herd animals think — describing their senses, fears, instincts, and memories — and how to analyze their behavior, will help you handle your livestock more safely and effectively. You’ll learn to become a skilled observer of animal movement and behavior, and detailed illustrations will help you set up simple and efficient facilities for managing a small herd of 3 to 25 cattle or pigs, or 5 to 100 goats or sheep.

Farm animals or livestock are animals that are raised in an agricultural setting for the production of meat, milk, eggs, fur, wool or leather. This includes animals such as sheep, cattle, swine, poultry, goats, etc. Traditionally, farm animals were not confined within enclosures, allowing them the freedom to forage for food. Such practices have now mostly been replaced by intensive animal farming. Poultry are kept in cages or barns under controlled conditions, while dairy cows and beef cattle are kept in high density feedlots or in zero-grazing conditions. This leads to an increased susceptibility to developing internal and external parasites, and other diseases. To avoid such circumstances from arising and for optimal production, proper feeding, hygiene, good husbandry and veterinary care are essential. Routine vaccinations and use of antibiotics when necessary can prevent many diseases from occurring. Such measures can prevent the spread of contagious diseases between animals, and between animals and humans. The topics included in this book on farm animals are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, the book makes an effort in highlighting their impacts as a modern tool in the sustenance of animal health and welfare in the farm. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals.

Air Emissions from Animal Feeding Operations: Current Knowledge, Future Needs discusses the need for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to implement a new method for estimating the amount of ammonia, nitrous oxide, methane, and other pollutants emitted from livestock and poultry farms, and for determining how these emissions are dispersed in the atmosphere. The committee calls for the EPA and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to establish a joint council to coordinate and oversee short - and long-term research to estimate emissions from animal feeding operations accurately and to develop mitigation strategies. Their recommendation was for the joint council to focus its efforts first on those pollutants that pose the greatest risk to the environment and public health.

An understanding of social behaviour is increasingly necessary in farm animal husbandry as more animals are housed in groups rather than in individual stalls or pens. There may be economic or welfare reasons for such housing. This book is the first to specifically address this important subject. The chapters fall into three broad subject areas: concepts in social behaviour; species specific chapters; current issues. Authors include leading experts from Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand.Animal welfare/behaviour issues are becoming increasingly importantCombines theoretical and practical details about the social behaviour of our most common farm speciesWritten by leading experts from around the world
