"All three volumes of Achieving sustainable production of milk
should be considered as a whole...Over more than 1200 pages, the
authors review all fields of milk production, beginning with milk
composition, genetics and breeding, safety and milk quality,
sustainability of milk production as well as dairy herd management,
health, welfare and nutrition of dairy. All three volumes could be
considered a standard reference for graduate students in the fields
of dairy science and veterinary medicine, animal and dairy
scientists at universities and other research centres, and also
those in governments and companies involved or working in the field
of milk production." Animal Feed Science and Technology In meeting
rising demand, more intensive dairying systems face a range of
challenges such as maintaining high standards of safety in the face
of the continuing threat from zoonoses entering the food chain,
whilst sustaining nutritional and sensory quality. At the same time
farms need to become more efficient and sustainable. Finally,
farming must also meet higher standards of animal health and
welfare. Drawing on an international range of expertise, this book
reviews research addressing the welfare, nutrition and health of
dairy cattle. Part 1 begins by discussing key issues in welfare
followed by topics such as genetic selection and welfare, housing
and transportation. Part 2 looks at nutrition with chapters on
rumen microbiology, feed evaluation and formulation, feed
supplements and feed safety. The final part of the book covers
aspects of health such as control of diseases and other disorders
such as lameness as well as dairy herd health management. Achieving
sustainable production of milk Volume 3: Dairy herd management and
welfare will be a standard reference for animal and dairy
scientists in universities, government and other research centres
and companies involved in beef production. It is accompanied by two
other volumes which review milk composition, genetics and breeding
as well as safety, quality and sustainability.
