To meet growing demand, the FAO has estimated that world poultry production needs to grow by 2-3% per year to 2030. Much of the increase in output already achieved has been as a result of improvements in commercial breeds combined with rearing in more intensive production systems. However, more intensive systems have increased the risk of transmission of animal diseases and zoonoses. Consumer expectations of sensory and nutritional quality have also never been higher. At the same time consumers are more concerned about the environmental impact of poultry production as well as animal welfare. Drawing on an international range of expertise, this book reviews research on poultry health and welfare. Part 1 begins by reviewing the range of diseases and other health issues affecting poultry. It then goes on to discuss ways of preventing and managing disease such as breeding, and means of attenuating the immune system. The second part of the book discusses welfare issues such as management of breeding flocks, housing, transport and humane slaughter techniques. Achieving sustainable production of poultry meat Volume 3: Health and welfare will be a standard reference for poultry and food scientists in universities, government and other research centres and companies involved in poultry production. It is accompanied by two further volumes which review safety, quality and sustainability as well as poultry breeding and nutrition.

The contributors to Colonial Racial Capitalism consider anti-Blackness, human commodification, and slave labor alongside the history of Indigenous dispossession and the uneven development of colonized lands across the globe. They demonstrate the co-constitution and entanglement of slavery and colonialism from the conquest of the New World through industrial capitalism to contemporary financial capitalism. Among other topics, the essays explore the historical suturing of Blackness and Black people to debt, the violence of uranium mining on Indigenous lands in Canada and the Belgian Congo, how municipal property assessment and waste management software encodes and produces racial difference, how Puerto Rican police crackdowns on protestors in 2010 and 2011 drew on decades of policing racially and economically marginalized people, and how historic sites in Los Angeles County narrate the Mexican-American War in ways that occlude the war's imperialist groundings. The volume's analytic of colonial racial capitalism opens new frameworks for understanding the persistence of violence, precarity, and inequality in modern society. Contributors. Joanne Barker, Jodi A. Byrd, Lisa Marie Cacho, Michael Dawson, Iyko Day, Ruth Wilson Gilmore, Alyosha Goldstein, Cheryl I. Harris, Kimberly Kay Hoang, Brian Jordan Jefferson, Susan Koshy, Marisol LeBron, Jodi Melamed, Laura Pulido

Ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B) has profound effects on plant growth and development, and exposure varies with ozone depletion and across geographic regions, with ecosystem and agricultural consequences. This book deals with large-scale impacts but also how UV-B affects plants at the molecular level is also fascinating, and the UV-B photoreceptor has only recently been characterised. While UV-B radiation can be damaging, it also has a more positive role in plant photomorphogenesis. Consequently UV-B treatments are being developed as innovative approaches to improve horticulture. This book is a timely synthesis of what we know and need to know about UV-B radiation and plants.

One of Satan's strategies to keep God's children in financial bondage is to convince them that they can't afford to give, when in fact they can't afford not to give. It is vitally important that you understand this fact: It is your giving that opens you up to receive an empowerment from God, a supernatural ability from God to prosper. Your giving is what allows God to cloth you with the anointing to prosper in every area of your life. The only thing powerful enough to stop that anointing from operating in your life is when you allow the enemy to stop you from sowing. You must get to the point where you realize that as long as you keep giving you will continue to experience victory in your life, and financial freedom. WHEREVER YOU FIND POVERTY, WHEREVER YOU FIND LACK, AND WHEREVER YOU FIND ANY TYPE OF FINANCIAL CAPTIVITY IF YOU WILL TRACE IT BACK TO THE ROOT CAUSE, YOU WILL ALWAYS DISCOVER THE ROOT CAUSE OF IT BEING A LACK OF SOWING SEED Every time you plant a seed you active or set in motion spiritual laws. God said in the book of Genesis that as long as the earth remaineth seedtime and harvest would not cease. You plant a seed you get a harvest That's just the way the law works You plant you reap That's spiritual law It is unchangeable, and undeniable. It works every time you plant a seed. It works whether or not you feel like it is working. It works regardless of the circumstances or situations. You plant you reap Once you understand that God is the Source of your financial freedom and that giving is how you receive that freedom the devil will never be able to hold you in financial bondage again This book is designed, to teach you how to experience supernatural increase in your life by activating the spiritual laws governing increase and abundance.
